Let’s take a look on his views regarding the set-up and importance of an online platform which can cater the needs of law student and formula to attain desired scholarship for foreign studies.
I started Knowledge Steez when I was doing my LL.M to provide a platform for law students where they can get access to all the upcoming events, scholarships, fellowships, internships etc. because there was no such platform available to me and I had missed many opportunities because of lack of awareness and hence this idea of starting Knowledge Steez came in my mind and here it is today, one of the leading websites among law students. Knowledge Steez team is spread throughout the county and abroad as well and the team is actively conducting legal aid campaigns and other events in their region.
