        Dr. Ahmad has taught many subjects of varied nature whenever he was asked therefor. He is a jurocrat and believes in an amalgamation of human existentialism in jurocracy deviant to the horizontal and vertical distinctions existent in the contemporary social milieu so as to climax the compendium of salubrious transcendental institutionalism in the geo-politics of New Multi-Polar World Order. He is a member of Amnesty International and Human Rights Campaigner.

He has composed many poems-inter alia- on law. He is sincere in his academic and social commitments and obligations towards students and seniors alike. Dr. Ahmad attends the students on individual basis. Participatory pedagogy, persuasive panache, and hermeneutics’ heterodoxy while engrafting the colossus of classical and contemporary practical polemics into the theoretical prism with the spirit of camaraderie in the class-room are the pinnacle of his teaching methodology.
