Sourabh Bharti is an Assistant Professor at NALSAR University of Law. His association with the institution began earlier as a student.
He completed his LLM at NALSAR and, soon after graduating, joined the NALSAR faculty in 2009, returning to the same classrooms as a teacher where he had once sat as a student, which has given him a deep sense of continuity and belonging.
Bharti obtained his LLB from the Faculty of Law at the University of Delhi, an experience that laid a strong foundation for his engagement with legal scholarship. Interestingly, his academic journey did not begin with law.
Before transitioning to legal studies, Bharti studied science and completed his B.Sc. at the Government Gandhi Memorial Science College, Jammu (J&K). This interdisciplinary background has shaped the way he approaches legal problems, often with an analytical lens that draws from both scientific reasoning and legal method.
Bharti’s primary areas of teaching and research include Intellectual Property Rights and Administrative Law. Both fields, in different ways, examine the relationship between law, innovation, governance, and public interest. He finds great satisfaction in exploring with students how legal doctrines evolve in response to technological change and administrative power, and how courts mediate complex questions of policy and principle.
Beyond teaching and research, Bharti occasionally ventures into creative writing. He writes poetry—mostly in Hindi—and considers himself an amateur poet. For him, poetry offers a reflective counterpoint to legal analysis: a space to explore ideas, emotions, and experiences in a different register. Together, these pursuits—law and literature—continue to shape his intellectual and creative journey.
