How to use this volume
Solve the paper first, under exam conditions and against the clock. Then read the answers here and mark your own. Reading a solution before attempting the question feels productive and teaches very little, because recognising an answer is not the same as being able to write one.
Q.1 Answer the following in not more than two sentences.

Answer
The purpose of law reporting is to record and publish judicial decisions accurately, so that the principle laid down in a case can be found, cited and followed afterwards.
It exists because the Indian legal system works on precedent: under Article 141 the law declared by the Supreme Court binds all courts, and a rule cannot be followed unless the decision laying it down has been published. Reporting therefore gives the law certainty and uniformity and makes equality before the law possible, since like cases can be decided alike.
