The students of the Department of Law (IIIJS), University of Engineering and Management, Kolkata recently attended a Legal workshop named “3-day workshop on Law in collaboration with University of Engineering and Management, Kolkata” organized by “Poor Man’s Legal Aid” (from Susanta Basu Law Chamber), a social service organization based in Kolkata which is involved in helping poor people who need legal help and advice.

The workshop was mainly divided into two parts, the first part was a 2-day online workshop which was scheduled on 19th February, 2022 and 20th February, 2022. The time of both the days was 8 pm to 10 pm. The online workshops were conducted through Google meet. The second part of the workshop was a visit to the High Court, Calcutta which was held on 28th March, 2022.

On the first day of the workshop, i.e., on 19th February, 2022, Advocate Hirak Sinha was the speaker who delivered his speech on C.P.C & other Tribunals. And on the next day, i.e., on 20th February, 2022 (the 2nd day of the workshop) Advocate Soumyajit Raha was the speaker who delivered his speech on Criminology. On the 3rd day, the students visited the Calcutta High Court and City Civil Court, Calcutta on 28th March, 2022.

Students from all academic years, i.e., from the 1st year to the 4th year were eligible to attend the workshop. A total of 42 students from the department spontaneously participated in all the programmes scheduled on these 3 days. They took part in the Q&A round in the online workshops and also in the High Court visit.

The whole workshop was organized, coordinated and managed by the immense support and guidance of Mr. Shyamal Kumar Das, a member of the organization. Without him the workshop would not have been successful. Two Faculty members, Prof. Sarbani Sarkar and Prof. Niladri Mondal from the department side (UEM, Kolkata) were the faculty coordinators on the day of High Court visit held on 28th March, 2022. The students were guided by two Advocates, Adv. Gautam Roy and Adv. Samriddha Deb under whose supervision the High Court visit was successfully conducted.

The main objective of this 3-day workshop was to help students observe and understand the daily workings of the High Court and gain practical experience beneficial for their career, which became successful by the participation of the students, faculty members and cooperation from the coordinator and the entire team of the organization.
