We talk about women empowerment and gender equality relentlessly. Every second day a new hash tag surfaces that brings forth our attention to the disparity between men and women and yet we say ours is a modern world. Not too long ago, India’s Superstar who magically gets acquitted every time found himself being condemned for making a sexist comment on...
Just how many times you have given a f*ck about things which weren't worthy of the F word I just blurted out. You gave it on your Ex’s birthday when you weren’t related to it even on distant terms or when that moron talked crap about you or when your profile picture got only a handful of likes or when...
For years now, we have learnt in geography lectures about the replenishment of non-renewable resources and how millions of years are needed for these resources to form. But, humans are on the verge of utilising them to such an extent that there wouldn’t be anything left for the next generation. It seems like India is finally realising the need to...
The Theatre of Dreams welcomed Pogba in style as Zlatan Ibrahimovic managed to put United up top with 2 goals against Southampton. The debut for the ages, so to say. The 100-million-pound man Paul Pogba was in Mourinho's starting XI as they hosted Southampton in the Old Trafford. The match started brightly for Southampton as they started off with some confident...
Oxford defines internships as: "The position of a student or trainee who works in an organization, sometimes without pay, in order to gain work experience or satisfy requirements for a qualification" Our definition: "The time period when we are away from both college and home so that we could download as much as we want, roam around as much as we...
Welcome to ‘Fake’ Friendly Fridays where we interview celebrities on trivial issues and get the most vital answers. With a good mix of emotions and creative power, these interviews are meant only for entertainment. Taking offense and being ‘intolerant’ to these interviews is a complete waste of time, as there are purely based on the author’s imagination of what...
Despite the millennials forming such a paramount portion of the demographic, there have been no attempts to create a smartphone tailored according to their mindset. One of the primary aspects of millennials is their need to stand out. They love their individuality, they don't want something that's made for everyone. The Honor 8 changes that. Finally, the millennials have a phone...
It has been 9 days since Sushant took his life. And it took only 9 days for the students and alumni of our college, Amity Law School, Delhi (IP University) to band together like never before in a show of rare strength, unity and hope. I have known this college and its students for a long time and never have...
After the win of Sakshi Malik in the wrestling category, the news of P.V. Sindhu getting to the finals of the Badminton sport in the Olympics was nothing short of good news. It was a lively and energetic match, something that I never thought I'd be saying for the sport of badminton. Today I saw the match with bated breath, and...

It’s been a long time since I read the Deathly Hallows; I admit I don’t remember much of what happened to Harry. I am a part of the much less psyched tribe, you can call them 'The Muggle Tribe', who does discreetly follow the Potterworld, but less enthusiastically so. Lesser than the Ones who frantically wait in long queues on...
Lately, there have been a lot of Hindi movies and soap operas that pick a particular piece of history or a real life incident and weave a Bollywood drama around it and with these comes a disclaimer right in the beginning that the movie does not intend to deliver factual details and is a work of fiction. This leads the...

The 2016 Rio Olympics so far have not been very kind to Indians, with us losing out athletes from the competition faster than the college canteen sells out Maggi. After having lost out on most major events like Archery, track events, swimming and more, this win at last has come as a relief to the Indian people, who were just...

TVF who are known for their original and refreshing content have come up with another interestingly crazy idea. Well, they came up with a perfect Raksha Bandhan treat to celebrate siblinghood! Siblings are not really those people you imagine being your cool-selves with. You have a certain love-hate relationship with them that makes it difficult to survive with them after a...
Our choices and preferences are the biggest factors that make us different from other people. But Food and Sex are the choices commonly made by every individual. Aren't they? Just yesterday, while watching my favourite sitcom, I started thinking about the age old question, which nobody has a definite answer to. What do I prefer, food or sex? And even...
Rishiraj Singh, an official known for his seriousness and no-nonsense attitude, has rapidly become the butt of all jokes on social media. Speaking at an event, he claimed that if a man stares at a woman for more than 14 seconds, he can be convicted! I don’t know which book on law he read, but I think he certainly got...
So, Narayan Murthy is apparently trending these days, and one wonders, how this co-founder of Infosys has managed to do so. And it is very simple, by just saying a few controversial lines about India and the citizens that inhabit it. The sensitive minds and hearts of Indians can rarely hear anything against their beloved country, while being perfectly ok...
Doesn’t your love for sleep trump over every other pleasure? I cannot imagine why it wouldn’t! Every day every moment all I can think is when will I return home and curl up in my cozy bed.

The need to know what is not being told has become a right for us. The need to know the truth is evident in the fact that we're asking for declassification of files. No doubt, each government has its secrets. Hollywood runs on making movies about CIA and its secrets but there have been a few political deaths that had...
Editor's Note: The author of this article wishes to not reveal their name as he/she is currently a student of the college and fears for their grades . That fact alone should suffice to show the system at place in ALSD. Sushant Rohilla, a 3rd year student of Amity Law School, Delhi (IP) passed away on the 10th of August. He...

I love Game of Thrones as much as the next guy and so it pains me when I have to wait months before I’ll get to watch another new Game of Thrones episode. A mortal can only take it so much! Arguably, patience is not my best quality and so I take it upon myself to seek out alternatives...
