The attendees included well-known personalities from the legal fraternity, policy-makers, and academicians from diverse disciplines, as well as eager students who wished to gain an insightful understanding of the various aspects of India’s federal structure.
Shri K. Surender, Hon’ble Justice, High Court of Telangana, graced the event as the Chief Guest. The NMIMS Hyderabad leadership who attended the event included Dr. Siddhartha Ghosh, Director and Dr. Mohammed Samiulla Arab, Associate Dean, School of Law. The significant session was held to discuss the scope of federalism in India, the constitutional framework behind it, the challenges facing it and the role of the judicial system in effectively upholding the federal structure of our Constitution.
The distinguished personalities shared their rich insights on the constitutional, political, economic and social dimensions of federalism in India. Eminent scholars from across India reflected upon the prospects and challenges in a federal state. Furthermore, 41 diverse peer-reviewed papers on the topic were presented at the session.
Dr. Siddhartha Ghosh expressed gratitude towards the attendees at the session and welcomed them to express their own opinions on the themes of the session. Presenting his opinion on the topic, he said, “Being a diverse country, India is replete with federal challenges. While the centre and the states cooperate with each other on most occasions, there are bound to be some disagreements.”
Underlining the significance of federalism, Honourable Justice K. Surender opined, “Cooperative Federalism between the central and the state governments has played a significant role in protecting the diversity of our country and keeping us united amid socio-economic challenges and disparities.”
Dr. Mohammed Samiulla Arab, in his speech, enlisted the roles and responsibilities of legislative bodies and asserted that India was a federal state where the central and state governments worked in cohesion with each other.

These drones transmit real-time video to nearby police stations, improving public safety. This innovative invention could also potentially save lives and help those stranded on highways. The system also has applications beyond emergencies, such as merging surveillance cameras with intelligent lighting to create a virtual security network, deterring wrongdoers and ensuring safety.
Merely 19 years old, Pavithra and Trisha from 1st year B.Tech. Computer Science and Engineering (Data Science) at School of Technology Management & Engineering showed dedication and balanced their academic pursuits with the demands of their project. Their achievements have inspired their peers and showcased the potential of research and innovation. Pavithra and Trisha’s success story has opened doors for future students, encouraging them to dream big and strive for excellence.
Their journey throughout this research endeavor has been both inspiring and challenging. Despite being first-year students, they exhibited exceptional dedication and a thirst for knowledge. Their meticulous process involved gathering data from various reliable sources, selecting appropriate references, and interpreting the information effectively. The entire project spanned three months, during which they managed to strike a balance between their academic commitments and research work by investing extra hours in the evening.
Pavithra and Trisha expressed their gratitude to Dr. Siddhartha Ghosh, acknowledging his mentorship and emphasis on self-learning. His guidance empowered them to take ownership of their research work, encouraging independent exploration and problem-solving. This approach instilled in them a research-oriented mindset and enabled them to deliver their research paper successfully. Despite being the youngest participants at the IBSSC conference, they received appreciation from scientists and professors, leaving a lasting impression on the attendees. Their confidence can be attributed to the regular activities, including presentations, conducted at NMIMS Hyderabad through their various clubs.

Once a research mind is created, students will acquire the skills to study better, prepare high-quality assignments, and become less reliant on faculty and classes.
