The Vivekananda Law College, Puttur has been rendering a value based legal education since 1988-89. The college even tough situated in a mofussil place, it is doing wonders in inculcating the knowledge and sprit of Law among its student community. The college is well housed in a spacious and comfortable building/campus, it has a good library, a separate computer lab, a suitable Auditorium and a moot court hall. My visit to VLC on few occasions have made to strongly believe that this institution has all the potential to become one of the top law colleges in the state and the country. The able support, guidance and non-interference of the management also appears to be the key to its progress. I should Specially mention Dr.B.K.Ravindra the Director of the Law College, who has provided a great insight and has programmed a wonderful all round academic atmosphere to the growth of VLC in the right direction. I wish VLC all the success
