Cultural Activities

"Reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man, writing an exact man". This expression of Lord Bacon is aptly applicable in the discipline of law. Apart from the course prescribed by the HNB Garhwal University and the norms laid down by the Bar Council of India. Law College Dehra Dun stretches itself beyond these barriers. Care is taken to balance in-class and out-of-class life. Debates and seminars on contemporary legal issues, guest lectures and participation in cultural activities are some of the co-curricular activities forming an integral part of the curriculum. The aim of such activities is to improve the students' writing & communication skills and inculcate the ability to understand relevant issues.
 

Our experienced teaching faculty is able to transfer to the students their accomplishments through tutorials, personal interaction and mentoring process. The process is aimed at helping the students to overcome their academic and non-academic problems and streamline their inherent skills.

We believe that a healthy mind lives in a healthy body. To ensure all round development, students are encouraged to take part in various cultural events held all through the year. Whether it is the Freshers Party or national festivals, our students display their talent with great abandonment. Having students from diverse communities and states one can observe confluence of multi cultures.
Unity in diversity!
