About the Event
SVKM’s Jitendra Chauhan College of Law proudly presents Law Tryst 2026, the 27th edition of its flagship countrywide Law fest, scheduled to be held on 13th, 14th and 15th March 2026. Over the years, Law Tryst has evolved into a prestigious academic platform that brings together law students from across India to compete, collaborate, and engage with contemporary legal challenges.
This year’s theme — “The New Freedom: AI, IP & India’s Innovation Republic” — reflects the growing intersection of law, technology, and innovation. As India moves toward its Viksit Bharat 2047 vision, the theme explores how legal frameworks can protect intellectual property, encourage responsible innovation, and address ethical questions emerging from artificial intelligence and digital transformation.
Law Tryst 2026 is designed as a three-day immersive academic experience that blends courtroom simulation, policy debate, negotiation strategy, and client advisory skills. Participants will gain practical exposure, sharpen advocacy abilities, and interact with legal professionals in a high-energy competitive environment.
