Education that strengthens social democracy.

Anandraj Y. Ambedkar

Our commitment is to carry forward the educational mission of the People’s Education Society by creating opportunities, upholding constitutional values and preparing students to serve society through the law.

The institution remains dedicated to inclusive, value-based and professionally relevant legal education. Students are encouraged to pursue knowledge with compassion, discipline and a deep sense of public responsibility.

Leadership rooted in law, equality and service.

The rule of law is better than the rule of a tyrant.

— Aristotle

Legal education is a sine qua non for all. “Ignorantia juris non excusat” means ignorance of law is no excuse.

As Principal of Dr. Ambedkar College of Law, Mumbai, it is a matter of great honour and pride for me to introduce this premier law college in the capital city of Maharashtra.

During its long journey of more than four decades, the College has established a strong footprint in legal education. It gives us great pleasure to introduce ourselves as one of the oldest law colleges in the city.

The chief architect of the Constitution of India, Bharat Ratna Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar, laid down important objectives behind the foundation of the People's Education Society. We are proud to march on the same path in order to fulfil the dream of Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar.
