Law School Darshan: Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Patiala

The usually reliable Urban Dictionary defines a flash mob as “a bunch of random people who meet up to spontaneously do something ridiculous to confuse others”. For once, I think they have it wrong. I am standing in the campus of the Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Punjab (RGNUL) and am watching a “flash mob” take place before my very eyes. It is some sort of invitation for the farewell party for the final years and it consists of a bunch of students going absolutely bonkers. They dance (in a clearly synchronised manner) and then shout and then dance some more and it is one of the most fun things I have seen. The performance is filled with energy, happiness and the kind of careless abandon that only a college campus can have. Three months of country-wide travel had gotten me a bit tired, a bit nostalgic for home. This made me forgot that for while, made me leave behind my cynicism for a couple of moments. Perhaps being a law student isn’t that bad after all.
