INTERSHIPS & OPPORTUNTIES

Insights into my Law Internship Experience: Boddu Harshith Sai, Bennett University

law internship

The internship opportunity I received at Indian Law Watch was a fantastic opportunity for learning and professional development. I consider myself extremely fortunate to have been selected for the Indian Law Watch internship program. I am also grateful to have met Ms. Jyoti Srivastava, the CEO of Indian Law Watch, who guided me through this internship period. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank her for guiding me down the right path, allowing me to carry out my work at their organization, and providing advice that was useful to my studies and knowledge throughout the internship period despite their hectic schedules.

During my internship period at this esteemed Company, I have been introduced to the concept of Arbitration. As a law student this was a great opportunity to explore more about arbitration and during this internship period I have been assigned few research articles on topics, “History and Evolution of Arbitration and comparison with the Singapore Arbitration Law”, “Examination of Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, “Singapore’s Apex Court New Approach in determining the pre-arbitrary award”. This had helped me researching on my topic and gathering all the relevant information regarding the topic and writing the research articles.

With the research articles on the Arbitration I have understood the importance of Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR) which helps in speedy disposal of justice and less expenses when compared to the litigation. And I have learnt that in the arbitration there is a third party i.e. arbitrator who acts impartially in settling the disputes between the parties and the decision given by the arbitration proceeding is binding on both the parties. And in India the arbitration proceedings are governed by Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996.

How had I applied?

This internship opportunity with Indian Law Watch would not have been possible without the assistance of the Internship Placement Committee, for which I am grateful. This internship has been one of important moment in my professional development. And I promise that I will work hard to put the skills and knowledge I gained during this internship to good use, and will continue to improve my skills that will help me achieve my career goals.
