About AmicusX
AmicusX is an online platform that reflects the evolving dynamics of legal education. This website is the result of the enthusiasm of a group of law students, lawyers and laymen, who have come together to decode and cognize the multi-faceted understanding of the law.
About the Webinar
Amidst all negativities of the raging global pandemic, it has also provided ample opportunities for enthusiasts to learn and discuss. At a time like this, when most of us are trying to “work from home”, three charismatic lawyers have managed to take some time out to speak at our webinar on “Freedom of Speech and Expression in today’s India”.
The erudite panel of speakers will enrich the webinar with their captivating insights into the topic, along with a Q/A session at the end of the webinar. This is the first webinar organized by AmicusX.
