Parul University Team Wins National Moot Court Competition
The Shri NJ Yasaswy Memorial 11th National Moot Court Competition 2026 provided participants with an opportunity to argue complex constitutional and statutory propositions before sitting judges of the Telangana High Court.
The Parul University team demonstrated legal reasoning, strategic thinking, and teamwork throughout the competition. The rigorous questioning by the bench challenged the participants to defend their arguments and respond to complex legal issues under pressure.
Opportunity to Argue Before Telangana High Court Judges
