About the AMUCM Law Society Review

AMUCM Law Society Review is the flagship journal of Aligarh Muslim University Centre Murshidabad, started with the objective of promoting academic research and proselytizing debate on contemporary legal issues. The Review is a yearly, double-blind student-reviewed and edited journal, focusing on an inter-disciplinary approach towards legal writing. The sphere of the review is not restricted to any particular field of law but is broad enough to include national as well as international socio-legal approaches.

We are pleased to announce that the Aligarh Muslim University Centre Murshidabad is going to publish a Journal of the Law Society. It aims to provide a platform to academicians, practitioners, researchers, and students to express their experiences and opinions on varied issues of contemporary importance, through their erudite articles and research papers.
