First impression, first day formalities, infrastructure

The first day had nothing to do other then signing of the attendance and a briefing session about the internship program (referred as training program by them).

The first day seemed dull and boring to me. Not many had turned up that day, nor there was anything to do that day.

Main tasks

The main tasks consisted of reading of the cases that were scheduled for that day and elaborating or presenting the case before the bench and answering the questions asked by them.
