LAW CENTRE-II, FACULTY OF LAW, UNIVERSITY OF DELHI
Law Centre-II made a humble beginning in the year 1971 at the premises of ARSD College, Dhaula Kuan to offer a full-time LL.B. program. It has had a glorious past of 48 years. In 2016, Law Centre-II took upon a new avatar. It was shifted from the ARSD College premise to the State-of-the-Art Building (Umang Bhawan) in North Campus-the heart of University of Delhi. Adding strength to the centre is its well-qualified and dedicated faculty for the overall development of the students who in turn help them to become innovative legal professionals and public leaders.

Kaul, who became Chairperson, Delhi Judicial Academy and Prof. Poonam Saxena, who is presently Vice-Chancellor, National Law University, Jodhpur.

Presently, Prof. Mahavir Singh is in-charge of Law Centre-II. The Centre being a dynamic leader in the field of legal education, has had the privilege to produce many Judges, distinguished jurists, leading advocates, ministers, and some of the best teachers the country has ever known. It has had the privilege of having alumni from all walks of life.
