In a focused discussion held among the law-aspiring students, individuals like Mihir Burman, Ayushman Singh, Akshy Shrivastava, Sonu Sharma, Lekhram, Sana Rawlani, Ayush Mishra, and Sneha Khati came forward and articulated the legal concerns of students from ground reality. They emphasized that Katni district has immense legal talent and interest, but **lack of local legal education infrastructure is causing injustice to rural and economically disadvantaged students.
These students expressed that the **Constitution grants every citizen the right to education under Article 21-A**, and when law plays such a central role in democracy, **access to legal education should not be a privilege of metropolitan cities alone**. They further raised points about how introducing law courses in Tilak College would:
* Promote **local legal awareness and empowerment**
* Reduce **financial burden** on families who cannot afford to send children to other cities
* **Strengthen the local legal ecosystem** by producing future advocates, judicial officers, and legal researchers from within the district
Their thoughtful concerns reflected not just a personal academic demand, but a **larger call for educational justice**.
