IIT Kharagpur Takes The Initiative To Make Indian Law More Popular

The Dean of RGSOIPL, Khushal Vibhute, said that promoting India-bound student traffic is to popularize Indian Law. This is just the reverse of Indian legal scholars crossing borders in the past to become practitioners and professionals and popularize that country’s law.

“With the government showing interest in bringing foreign students and promoting internationalisation of IITs, a spring semester programme with GW Law School had been organized and this opened the doors for the exposure of Indian students,” he said.

IIT Kharagpur’s Law School has also extended its reach to areas such as Corporate, Taxation, Criminal, International, Constitutional and Competition Law.
