A law university, in keeping with the nature of its discipline, must ensure sound student governance, welfare and representation. Acknowledging this reality, GNLU provides for an efficient representative body. the Student Welfare and Grievance Redressal Committee.
The Committee, which is governed by its Constitution and is of perpetual succession, comprises elected representatives (Male and Female) from each of the five batches in the University and thereafter the office-bearers are elected by the members of the Committee.
While the basic mandate of the Committee is to liaise between the student community, the faculty, administration and alumni, addressing grievances and conveying recommendations, the Committee in addition, aims to develop community life in the college to ensure holistic growth, an inclusive atmosphere and general welfare of the students. Among its various roles, it envisages engagement and overseeing of the various committees of the University to be a prominent one, so as to ensure mediation of any conflicts and remove duplication of activities.

Dear Students,
Greetings from the Students Welfare and Grievance Redressal Committee.
An important part of the mission of the SWGRC is to improve the quality of the student experience at GNLU. To this end, we spend a lot of time talking with students about their concerns and soliciting their suggestions for ways to improve their experience. Based on the inputs of some of your friends, we are coming up with a new system of mentorship for students: the GNLU Student Mentorship Programme (GSMP), which will work in conjunction with the existing Faculty mentorship programme.
Mentoring is a particular form of relationship designed to provide personal and professional support to an individual. The mentor is generally more experienced than the mentee and makes use of that experience in a facilitative way to support the development of the mentee. The mentoring relationship provides a developmental opportunity for both parties and can thus be of mutual benefit. In a nutshell, a student mentor's role may be perceived to be facilitative, supportive and developmental for the student community in general.
Thus, I request you to carefully go through the attached Guidelines and apply to be a part of GSMP at the earliest. All relevant details about the programme are mentioned in the Guidelines.
I hope that this initiative fundamentally helps the students realize the immense opportunities available at GNLU, dream big and achieve the same with the assistance of each other, thereby building a strong and mature GNLU student community.
I solicit your support in making this programme successful and in our collective endevour to make our GNLU an even better place.
Sincerely,
Dr. Mahesh Chaudhary,
Chief Warden & Assistant Professor of Management
