LawFoyer proudly celebrates the remarkable achievement of Dhanvi Kadian, a Final Year BBA LL.B. (Hons.) student from GD Goenka University, Gurugram, Haryana, who secured the Runner Up position at the Second GD Goenka International IP Essay Writing Competition, 2025. Organized by GD Goenka University at the University Level, this prestigious competition witnessed enthusiastic participation from talented legal minds, making Dhanvi’s accomplishment truly commendable.
Dhanvi’s winning essay, titled “The Business Behind the Belief: How the Ramayana Was Capitalized By…”, reflects deep academic insight and a powerful blend of legal reasoning with cultural understanding. Her work has recently been published in the International Journal for Legal Research and Analysis (IJLRA), adding another feather to her cap. Having her research featured on such a respected academic platform marks a significant milestone in her academic journey.
Her essay explores the complex intersection of intellectual property law and cultural heritage. In a time when traditional narratives and cultural symbols are increasingly commercialized, Dhanvi’s work highlights the importance of cultural responsibility and the protection of heritage through legal frameworks. She brings forward thoughtful arguments on how ancient cultural texts like the Ramayana are not just spiritual or literary treasures but also subjects of commercial interest in the modern era. Through her research, she emphasizes the need for a balanced approach that respects tradition while navigating intellectual property rights.
For Dhanvi, this achievement is deeply personal. She shares that this essay is incredibly close to her heart as it reflects her passion for law, culture, and critical inquiry. The opportunity to express her ideas on cultural responsibility and intellectual property protection has been both fulfilling and empowering. Winning the competition and seeing her work published has been a surreal experience for her. She describes the moment as one of immense joy and gratitude, calling it an honour beyond words.
Competitions like these demand not only strong writing skills but also analytical depth, originality, and the ability to present complex legal concepts in a structured and compelling manner. Dhanvi’s success stands as proof of her dedication, consistency, and intellectual curiosity. It also reflects the academic environment of GD Goenka University, which continues to encourage research, innovation, and scholarly excellence among its students.
Being recognized at an international themed competition and securing a publication in a reputed legal journal is no small feat, especially for a student in her final year. It showcases her readiness to contribute meaningfully to academic discourse and legal scholarship. Her journey serves as a reminder that when passion meets perseverance, remarkable achievements follow.
Dhanvi’s accomplishment is not just a personal victory but also an inspiration for aspiring law students across the country. It encourages young legal minds to participate in research competitions, engage deeply with subjects they care about, and fearlessly share their perspectives with the world. Academic writing is a powerful tool for change, and Dhanvi has beautifully demonstrated how students can use it to address contemporary legal and cultural issues.
