Dear Students, 

This is to bring to the notice of the student community that CRIL is beginning with a series of weekly discussion forums where senior students specializing in the field of International Law will deliver talks on topics of importance in the current International scenario.

We are beginning this endeavor on Tuesday,  22nd March 2011 at 6 p.m. in the Academic Block with the first talk being delivered by Rijoy Bhaumik on The War against Terrorism – The Classification of Terrorists under International Law.

The talk will be followed by a discussion on the topic. Students are encouraged to attend these lectures in order to improve their knowledge of International Law and to keep abreast with the latest issues concerning the international community.

5th STUDENT ROUND TABLE CONFERENCE, 2011



5th STUDENT ROUND TABLE CONFERENCE, 2011

CALL FOR PAPERS
The Indo- U.S. Nuclear Deal: Emerging Issues of International Law
The India-U.S. Nuclear Cooperation Agreement (or the 123 Agreement) is a bilateral agreement for civil nuclear commerce between the two countries, the United States of America and India.
Within India, critics believe that the reciprocal non-proliferation commitments India has entered into, as part of the agreement, bring it closer to the regime it has always opposed, thereby compromising its strategic sovereign independence and right to test nuclear weapons in future, thus, bringing India into a de facto defense alliance with the U.S.
 From the international angle, it has been primarily alleged by the critics that the India exception bends non-proliferation rules irreparably for political purposes and sends the wrong signal to countries such as Iran.
However, it may be noted that future generations may remember the deal for quite different reasons than the debate over nuclear proliferation!
The 123 Agreement has opened the Pandora’s Box due to which, several other issues, such as human rights, international trade law, and international environmental law have surfaced on the international horizon.
This conference seeks to identify the concrete legal areas which will get affected and the respective legal implications of the 123 Agreement by following a multifaceted approach.
