The RGNUL Student Research Review (RSRR) Journal is a bi-annual, student-run, double-blind peer-reviewed, flagship journal based at Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Punjab.Through this initiative, RSRR aims to critically examine the ideas promoted by the author of any legal literature with originality and legal tenability. The aim is to provide a holistic understanding and a balanced critique of books that have a legal central theme. The book can be fiction, non-fiction, autobiography, etc. as long as its primary focus is on the law. The selected book reviews will be published on the website of RSRR.
