Kim Kardashian West Studying Law, Wants To Become Attorney

Kim Kardashian West, the reality TV star is studying law to take the California bar exam in 2022, she said in an interview with Vogue.

"I had to think long and hard about this," she said.

In Pursuant to this, she said that she has taken up a four-year apprenticeship with a law firm in San Francisco last summer.

As per reports, the TV star has played a key role in the release of a 63-year-old woman named Alice Johnson who served 21 years of a life sentence for a non-violent drug charge.

Following which, Kardashian has been working with lawyers and activists, including CNN commentator Van Jones, on a national bipartisan advocacy group on criminal justice reform.

"It's never one person who gets things done," she said. "It's always a collective of people, and I've always known my role, but I just felt like I wanted to be able to fight for people who have paid their dues to society." California is one of the four states in the U.S. that allows someone an alternate method to take the bar exam other than attending law school.

Ignorance is not bliss: Okhla Waste to Energy Plant needs to be relocated, residents argue

Questions on the suitability of waste-to-energy plants in Delhi are not new, but the 2,000 tonnes per day Waste to Energy (WTE) plant, situated in the middle of the dense residential areas around Sukhdev Vihar, is not just a major environmental worry but an example of how siting rules can be bent to accommodate a heavily polluting enterprise.
