Source note: The curriculum scope above is retained from the existing TU syllabus breakdown. The numbered study subtopics are editorial elaborations for teaching and study, rather than a separately issued TU syllabus. Unit or component allocations apply at their stated level; no separate topic hours or marks are assigned here. Legal examples must identify the governing law and amendment version supplied for the course; a curriculum heading does not by itself establish a currently applicable legal rule.
Legal reading reference: Consult the Nepal Law Commission's index of Acts and its Civil Code, 2074 page for the prescribed primary legal materials.
