Meet our Campus Ambassadors: Gourav Kumar, CMR University

Since late last year, we have built a network of Campus Ambassadors across more than fifty law schools all over India. These law students have been providing us with information on campus events and activities, and also sharing legal articles.

This series of interviews is meant to turn the spotlight on these hardworking and dedicated individuals.

In this edition, we speak with Gourav Kumar, a third-year student at the School of Legal Studies, CMR University.

I always desired to be associated with the ground realities of the society.I have and I had interest in dealing with social issues, talking to people regarding their problems, etc.. I chose Law because I thought it will help me in improving my standard of thoughts, skills & knowledge.

From early childhood, I was a kind of person who used to argue on everything and wanted to find the rationale behind anything happening in society. And for all these things, I thought that studying Law is the best and the most substantial field for me.

Bar & Bench is a big name in the field of Legal Journalism and as a Law student I always wanted to be the part of some prestigious organization where I can learn something. I chose to be the Campus Ambassador because of the following aspects:
