First impression, first day formalities, infrastructure

The National Green Tribunal is situated in the erstwhile Faridkot House which is undoubtedly a beautiful property.

You get to see lawyers in their black and white. Unlike other court premises NGT has a building with all sort of infrastructural facilities.

Main tasks

The main task involved was to follow the court room proceedings and to prepare the case synopsis for the same.

Work environment and people

This was the best part of the internship as you get to meet other law interns and in my case I met an intern who had came all the way long from USA and we became good friends.

Best things

The best thing in National Green Tribunal was to see the Chairperson Justice Swatter Kumar wrapping up the polluters in the bug.

Bad things

There was no bad thing as such.

Stipend

No Stipend

Biggest Lessons

The biggest lesson was that we came across the developing jurisprudence of environment of our country.

Any Other Thing

One should go for internship in NGT.

Accommodation

The accommodation I had was just 100 metres away from the NGT. It was Haryana Bhawan which was a decent deal of a place to stay in while you are in the national capital.

Although a more viable option is to book rooms on any app online in the Paharganj area which is near to the NGT and avoid living and eating in PGs.

Office Timings

The timings were quiet strict and the attendance register was well maintained and looked after.
