in IITs law is being taught after B.Tech. this is a move in the right direction. a knowledge of biology is also sine a qua non for lawyers.

i think every citizen must have the basic knowledge of law and lack of legal knowledge among masses is one of the reasons of rising litigation....those who dont know the law are often misguided.
for professionals from IIT the knowledge of law relevant to their work is quite necessary and i think quite a good decision.
this process should be taken to other educational institutions as well.

I think, a lawyer having knowledge in the Forensic Biology is not sufficient, also needed acquaintance in Forensic Science which is a broad spectrum of sciences. If that is the case then all other Sciences like Forensic Chemistry etc .. will also be lined up soon :)
Normally, an individual who is pursuing a career in Forensic Science would choose criminal justice programs but I can not imagine a lawyer biting these sciences altogether to gain legal advantage! Are we suspecting our Forensic Scientists in India ?
It may be a naive question but I would like to understand why a lawyer should have this kind of skill set in his career. This lawyer ultimately has to depend on the Forensic Scientist who has profound knowledge in his subject and he also possess a great analytical thinking by nature of his job!
Why redundancy should be involved thinking on the same subject by two different Professionals? Please clarify !

Mr. Raman
in law there is no term like " redundancy of knowledge."

It is a very good decision. Atleast general public will not be fooled due to lack of knowledge and we lawyers will also found suitable friends who can provide us deep knowledge of cyber crimes.
