In solidarity Prof. (Dr.) R. N. Sharma Dean, School of Law 4 Edition – I, July 2020 FROM THE DESK OF FACULTY EDITORIAL BOARD IMS Law Review (IMSLRW) is a non-profit, student reviewed annual law publication. Law students from the world over face a peculiar paradox. On the one hand, law schools relentlessly goad them towards academic pursuits and, specifically, getting their writing published. On the other hand, only a disproportionately few journals accept student submissions. In response to this, many universities have opted to establish journals exclusively intended for students, which have given them an opportunity to continue healthy discourse regarding the relationship of law and public policy in current scenario. It seeks to create a platform where there is a flow of ideas and thoughts regarding issues mutually relating to law and the contemporary legal issues. Editorial Board membership provides an opportunity to the students to discuss issues of importance in legal education, develop collaborative relationships with other students and alumnus, and gain editorial skills and scholarly publishing experience. The current board consists of our alumni and present students who hold -different positions in IMSLRW. The venture has been initiated to fulfil the mandate of promoting research and writing among law students; it accepts contributions on all areas of law and even social sciences issues bearing a legal slant. Undergraduate and postgraduate students of any discipline, not necessarily law, are invited to contribute. All articles are selected, edited and published by the Review's Editorial Board. Additionally, almost every issue will contain at least one case comment or essay writing, authored by IMS Unison University School of Law‘s student, as selected by the Editorial Board. Wishing all the readers success and health!

Through this, we aim to promote the spirit of learning amongst the students all over the country.

But the never ending efforts and enthusiasm of the Student Editorial Board made everything go smooth. We, also during the process, came to realise the importance of team work.
