On Monday, 7^th December 2015 two girls from HC Auxilium School participated in UKASE, the Inter-school Moot Court competition, held at DPS RK Puram. This competition aims to provide the students with a platform where they mix the thrill of competition with a great learning experience. This event will go a long way in broadening the horizons of students when it comes to first-hand experience of the ‘Court Room’.

The students had to prepare and argue the cases given before hand in front of the judges. The contestants were invited to pick the draw of lots to determine ‘defendant’ and ‘plaintiff ‘. The cases like loss of values are the reason for road rage incidents, close relations being attacked in matters of greed and lust, legal procedures being misinterpreted to favour accused in high profile cases etc.

Both Vrinda Saxena and Anuvinda Namboodiri of XI standard competed with eight teams from different schools of Delhi, qualified three rounds and bagged the First Position. They received a certificate of appreciation and a Trophy each for their performance.
