Dr. S. Siddharth urged the newly inducted students to give their best in the next three years if they really intend to contribute significantly in the nation building.He was of the view that lawyers are the last resort for the deprived sections of the society who fail to get justice through other mediums.This makes the profession very special and adds extra responsibility upon the students. In order to justify their status, they have to devote completely to the study of law and thereafter use their skills in upgrading the lives of people especially those who have been suppressed since ages. Prof. (Dr.) K. C. Sinha expressed his pleasure that during his tenure as Vice-Chancellor of PU, the seats in PLC have again been increased to 300 from 120, which will help the legal fraternity in a big way. He also held that the students must not only focus on law but also on other disciplines including Mathematics which will enhance their skills to the fullest. Prof. (Dr.) Anil Kumar said that all the faculty members of PLC are fully capable in instilling legal acumen in the students and aiding them in becoming successful professionals in future.But this will happen only when the students will attend classes regularly and obey their instructions with sincerity.He further ensured the students that as the Dean, Students Welfare, he will always give priority to the grievances of the students.The programme which was hosted by Dr. Ruchi Singh, ended with a vote of thanks which was proposed by Dr. Salim Jawed, both Assistant Professors (Sr. Scale), PLC.
