MBAUniverse.com brings to you a series of real account of GD, PI, WAT round at Top B School for admission in the session 2013-15.

Given below is the realistic account of Group Discussion with 8 candidates for admission to one of the top Business school.

GD topic – Business lobbying be made legal in India.

Raman- Friends, I am Raman and would like to begin the discussion since time is short. Our country is passing through the fierce debates on Lobbying. The print and electronic media have been discussing this issue as it directly affects the lower income groups. Lobbying in fact are the attempts made by certain Corporate Groups to influence the direction of legislative policy of a country or state in such a manner so as to bring benefits to them and safeguard their interests.
Sushma- (Interrupting) I think let us have your views instead of wasting our time on defining lobbying.

Raman In fact, if we do not have clarity on the topic, we may not be able to express our views on it. Nevertheless, let me share my views. India does not have any clear regulation for or against lobbying, especially when it comes by the name of lobbying. But it is not legal either.
Sushma Friends, in my view allowing business lobbying will mean legalising an illegal activity. Lobbyists will give the corruption legal term. The politicians, influential people, will still garner their share from the lobbyists at the National cost.
Sudarshan- I beg to differ, Sushma. Lobbying industry helps their clients in understanding the policy environment of the country. They help them in identifying key players and their positions in the policy area. The key players could be political parties, bureaucrats, Central government, panchayat government etc.
Udai – No, I disagree. If the thefts, dacoities, smuggling continue despite the presence of law enforcing agencies, it doesnt mean that we should make them legal. In my view Lobbying must be declared a criminal activity and if running in any form, should be stopped. Our country is already facing many problems, it should not be added to it. Everyone should agree with me.

Rajan Oh yes, Raman you are right. I also think on the same lines. The person or the company lobbying for certain favour cannot lobby till our government, legislative body- Parliament or the state legislature have not considered some path to move on.
Abhinav Friends, there is no doubt that business lobbying has become one of the most debatable issues in the country. Whenever India has gone for some big leap in policy framing that favoured Corporates in one or other way the issue of lobbying has always come up. Whether it was Enron Dabhol power project in Maharashtra, Foreign Investment in corporate sector, big defence purchases, Infrastructure development and now Foreign Direct Investment in multi brand retail- all have been shadowed by the issue of lobbying.

Krishna kumar – Well, Making lobbying legal will bring forth open debates and discussions on all the forums. It will become possible to understand for one and all which option might be better. These lobbyists and representatives of their companies will openly participate in such debates with the pros and cons on the performance and product. Lobbying in fact brings more competitiveness but making lobbying legal will be harmful- the lobbying should not be made legal in India.

A legal for trade scale is basically a precision weighing scale that has approval of National Type Evaluation Program (NTEP) administered by National Conference of Weights and Measures (NCWM). The scale is used for commercial operations where product is sold by weight. The scale is tested in accordance with the codes laid down by the handbook 44 of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

A legal for trade scale is subjected to stringent testing before it is awarded the certificate that allows the manufacturer to indent the legal-for-trade-mark on them. This makes it possible for them to sell the precision weighing scale to the end user for commercial use. The high quality electronic components and technology used in the manufacturing process, makes the NTEP scale costlier than a weighing scale that does not have the mark, legal-for- trade- mark.

The quality conformance test checks the weighing machine over a specified voltage range and subjects it to varying temperature. It closely monitors the ability of the balance machine to maintain a high degree of accuracy in-spite of repeated loading that is one-half of its capacity.

It is necessary to check for important features of a legal for trade digital scale to see whether it matches the NTEP and individual requirements. Some features like dual display, capacity versus display, Tare feature, computer pricing, printer, spill proof covering, battery and or 110v connection, removable platform, warranty and price should be checked thoroughly before investing in the precision weighing scale.

The new regulations make in mandatory to indent -Not for Direct Sales- on legal for trade scales that do not have the dual display unit. This makes it necessary for the end-user to install a second display unit in such a manner that it gives the customer an unhindered view of the weight reading. This ensures a greater transparency during the weight reading and ensures compliance of good business practice on the part of the end-user. When there is greater trust between the seller and the buyer it is good for both of them. You can learn more at www.paylessscales.com.

Mistakes made by an attorney can have significant, costly consequences for his or her client. As such, California law provides for individuals and organizations to recover loses in incidents where their legal counsel failed to perform according to the standards of the profession. This is known as legal malpractice, a very specialized area of the law that is typically handled by a personal injury lawyer specializing in prosecuting these types of cases. Though this area of the law falls under personal injury, such an attorney is commonly referred to simply as a legal malpractice attorney.

Just failing to win a case is not sufficient grounds on which to file a suit against an attorney and win damages. At least four criteria must be met that prove that an attorney breached his duty to the client:

Proof of negligence Attorney negligence occurs when the lawyer fails to use the care and skill that would be reasonably expected by other lawyers in similar circumstances. For example, when lawyer negligence fails to procure expert testimony in a case with technical detail (such as in a medical malpractice lawsuit).

Damages tied to the negligence The mistake of negligence of the attorney must result in damage to the client. A case against an attorney essentially is a case within a case. A legal malpractice attorney must prove there would have been a different outcome had the attorneys negligence not occurred. This typically requires the use of another lawyer as an expert witness.

Existing written agreement Very specific rules under California law require that written agreements exist between lawyers and client for cases where client fees will exceed $1,000. Sometimes, those agreements will restrict legal malpractice claims, such as requiring such disputes to be resolved through arbitration. Some agreements also require the losing party in a malpractice claim to pay the attorney fees of the prevailing party.

Viability for collecting on an award Attorneys in California are not required to carry liability insurance. Because an award for legal malpractice might exceed existing resources of that lawyer or law firm, it may not be possible to collect the damages you suffered if the attorney has no insurance.

When looking for a legal malpractice attorney

If you have damages due to legal malpractice in Southern California, consider hiring a reputable legal malpractice lawyer with experience in this area. It is a specialized area of injury law where clients benefit from personal injury attorneys who understand the specific challenges of such cases.

You should always contact a personal injury attorney to obtain information as to the rules and the laws pertaining to any claim you might have.
