Christ Junior College Model United Nations Society on 2nd, 3rd and 6th of August held its first ever edition of the Historical Moot Court under the guidance and support of the teacher coordinator Ms Dolly Martin.
The event comprised three rounds – firstly, 24 duo teams faced off in a turncoat round where one of the duo had to represent for the topic and the other against the same, allowing only 10 teams to move ahead to the second round of media trials. In the second round, the teams were furnished with a press update. They had to deliberate upon it by taking sides and managing to convince the judges and the audience through their orating skills, logical arguments and so on.
The competition saw an influx of participation from law enthusiasts who hustled through two elimination rounds only for two victorious teams to reach the finals as prosecutor and defendant for the infamous criminal case of Lt. Anil Kumar versus INA judged by Christ Junior College alumni and law students Calvert Nazareth, Divya Govindan and Vikrant Dwivedi. The defendants exhibited their arguments with logic and swayed the judgement in their favour.
