DIMAPUR, JUNE 28 (MExN): The Nagaland Law Students’ Federation (NLSF) has resolved to go for a sit-in-protest as its first phase of agitation in all the respective college premises on July 7, 2016 from 10am to 12 noon.
The objective of the protest is to pressure the State Government to set up government law colleges and to give equal importance to the subject of law in Par with other professional studies in the state, a press release from NLSF president Lanusowa and vice president Wekhrope Marhu informed.
Stating that it had repeatedly requested the government to take note of the inequity and to come up with a policy, the Federation however lamented that despite frequent appeal since the past decades and the passage of more than fifty years since attaining Statehood, Nagaland is yet to have a government law college.
It asserted that the absence of such a college has caused inconvenience to law students and at the same time making it hard for the poorer section of the state to take up law studies as a subject matter.
In this connection, the NLSF has requested all concerned to take cognizance of the issue and extend support towards the federation in achieving its objectives in the larger interest of the law students and the state as a whole.
