As one of the
significant aims and objectives of the organisation is to create Legal
awareness in the society one of the my main tasks was to create a WhatsApp
group and to add as many as individuals as possible and then to share the daily
legal updates in that particular group like regarding any important amendment,
legal current affairs, information about various MUNs taking place, various law
based competitions, articles, blogs etc. all of which was sent to me by my mentor
daily, I just had to forward it further
in my particular group. So, that more and more individuals get know about
things happening around.
Apart from this, other tasks were:
·
Debate competition
(Topic was given by the organisation)

Moot Court
Competition (Moot Proposition and teams were allotted by the organisation)

Work environment
of my internship was virtual but still very composed and cohesive, mentor was
just a text or call away to guide me whenever I needed him. Things like meeting
date and time, task submission deadline and other things were not decided arbitrarily

university/college exam and stuff.

submitting details for a formal thing you are not supposed to submit it in a
tabular form like Name - ____, College - _____ … but rather in a paragraph like
My name is ____ studying in ______.
