Vision and Mission

Vision
Rooted in and inspired by the Ignatian charism of forming men and women for others, Xavier Law School under St. Xavier' University, Kolkata, strives to promote a society based on love, freedom, liberty, justice, equality and fraternity by training the law students to focus on 'Satya' and 'Dharma'. While it is 'Dharma' to speak the truth, speaking the truth also leads to attainment of the ultimate 'Dharma' of peace and prosperity of the individual and society. Our vision is to impart and circulate the knowledge of law and to endorse the culture of research for the development and advancement of legal education.
