Aditya Kumar is a law student of the 2022-2027 batch, pursuing B.A. LL.B from Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University (GGSIPU). With a natural interest in criminal law that traces back to his childhood, Kumar has been fascinated by financial frauds and economic offences long before entering law school. This early curiosity has since deepened into a focused academic and professional pursuit, particularly in the realm of white-collar crimes.

Academic Focus
Kumar is deeply drawn towards disentangling the complex legislation related to white-collar crimes and economic offences. His areas of interest include:

• Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Regulations

• Anti-Corruption Legislation

• Commercial Frauds

• Foreign Funding and Exchange Controls

• Corporate Governance and Violations
   

His approach to these subjects is characterized by a persistent inquiry into the "why" behind legal frameworks—seeking to understand not merely what the law states, but the intent behind its enactment, the judicial interpretations that shape its application, and the evolving nature of enforcement.

Professional Experience
During his time in law school, Kumar has gained practical exposure to high-stakes legal proceedings. He has interned under a Special Public Prosecutor of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) at the Delhi High Court, who also serves as Senior Standing Counsel for the Union of India. This experience involved extensive court observations in significant corruption and criminal matters, providing him with invaluable insights into the prosecution of white-collar crimes at the highest levels of the judicial system.

Writing and Analysis
Whenever Kumar encounters news of enforcement actions, court decisions, or regulatory developments, he finds himself drawn to the underlying rationale and implications. This fascination prompted him to begin documenting his analysis and insights. Through his articles, he seeks to make complex white-collar legislation accessible to the legal fraternity and the public at large, breaking down intricate legal developments and judicial reasoning.

Broader Intellectual Interests
Kumar believes that one must stay curious and not restrict oneself to gaining knowledge in just one field, as knowledge is endless and ever-evolving. Beyond law, he maintains a deep interest in understanding human behavior, psychology, and literature across various genres.

His literary preferences lean toward works that explore themes of power, morality, and institutional systems. Among his favorite authors are George Orwell and Fyodor Dostoevsky, with particular appreciation for 1984, Animal Farm, and Crime and Punishment. These works resonate with his legal interests, as they examine how those in power manipulate systems and laws to serve their interests—themes remarkably relevant to the study of white-collar crimes and institutional corruption.

Kumar draws parallels between literary insights and legal realities. The way Napoleon in Animal Farm subtly modifies the farm's commandments, exploiting the animals' faulty memories and taking advantage of ambiguity, mirrors how corporate entities and individuals sometimes exploit legal loopholes or manipulate regulatory frameworks. Similarly, the abolition of "Beasts of England" in the same novel serves as a reminder of how those in power often attack the very symbols and mechanisms that could unite people against institutional wrongdoing—a dynamic he observes in the realm of corporate governance and regulatory compliance.

Future Aspirations
Kumar aspires to practice litigation with a specific focus on white-collar crimes and financial frauds, including matters related to money laundering, anti-corruption enforcement, and economic offences. His goal is to contribute meaningfully to this specialized field, bringing clarity to complex legal questions and advocating for robust enforcement of laws designed to protect economic integrity.

Philosophy
Through this platform, Kumar shares not only his legal analysis but also his thoughts and opinions on broader subjects. He remains committed to intellectual curiosity, interdisciplinary learning, and the belief that understanding human nature and systemic behavior is essential to comprehending and addressing white-collar criminality.
For those interested in his work or wishing to engage in discussions on these subjects, Kumar welcomes thoughtful discourse and collaboration.
