The 1st All India M.M. Singhvi Memorial Moot Court Competition, sponsored by the M.M. Singhvi Memorial Charitable Trust, Jodhpur began in 1996. The first four editions of the competition were organised by the Law Faculty, Jai Narayan Vyas University, Jodhpur.

From the 5th edition in 2001, the National Law University, Jodhpur has been organising the competition. In 2003, the Bar Council of India became the co-sponsors of the Competition and ever since it has grown in popularity.

In the decennial edition of the Competition held two years ago (2007), the organizers felt that the competition was mature enough to handle participation of teams from abroad as well. Thus, a proposition on Public International Law was framed, and teams from all over the world were invited to participate in the same. The response from foreign teams was overwhelming. Fifteen (15) foreign teams responded favourably and decided to participate in the Competition, making it the largest International Law Moot in India.
