The Institute thrives to make societal impacts and so does its students. The first step in this direction was to adopt a village - Jamiyatpura in the last academic session and this time, the National Service Scheme (NSS) - ILNU planned its first activity in the same village.
The National Service Scheme (NSS) under the Institute of Law, Nirma University organised various legal aid activities and community services during the year from October 2015 to March 2016.
