    Good infrastructure, moderately satisfied.
    Placements: People pursuing masters in law generally don't sit for placements, rather prepare for judicial services, public services or to qualify the national eligibility test or to pursue doctorate course, but since a few corporate law students from our batch showed interest for sitting in the placements, they were duly helped by the authorities with the initial process of the same.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure is excellent. The hostel is fairly nice than most of the colleges. The food available in mess is below average. The college is in dire need of a good and prompt medical care facility. The college lacks the infrastructure for even the most common and basic sports, with no badminton or basketball court, cricket or football ground. The canteen is as good as not being there at all, there is hardly anything available on the weekend except for the mess food. Night mess services are also required.
    Faculty: Teachers are qualified and helpful, the teaching techniques are modern. The reading materials provided by the teachers are great. The professors are helpful but the course structure is repetitive and might even seem irrelevant at some point and does not prepare for the industry at all. The entire master syllabus should be put under consideration.
