We are delighted to announce that Meeno Chawla has been awarded the prestigious Inner Temple Pegasus Scholarship to India.
The Inner Temple scheme offers placements abroad to barristers with up to seven years’ practice, giving them the chance to understand the practice of law abroad and forge new connections. Meeno will be hosted by the Kapila & Nirmal Hingorani Foundation.
The Scholarship will enable Meeno to work closely with legal professionals in India and to develop an insight into the Indian Legal System.
