This was recognised by the Government of Karnataka, India, which bestowed upon her the renowned Annual Kittur Rani Chennamma Award in 2018 for her contributions to women's empowerment.

Very dissatisfied because of infrastructure.

Placements: There are about 30% of students who got placed in my department. The placement percentage is not good. The highest package is 5 LPA. The average package is 3 LPA. The lowest package is 2.5 LPA. Very few companies approached our institute.

Five-year course at Symbiosis Law School, Pune.

Placements: Throughout the entire 5-year course, we were able to understand the seriousness of placements and their demands only in the final or pre-final year. At that stage, it is really hard to secure good offers without internships. However, some students without internship experience manage to get offers of around 3.6 LPA.
