Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham has inaugurated the Amrita International School of Law (AISL) at its Coimbatore campus. The new institution was formally opened by Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Law and Justice and Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs, Arjun Ram Meghwal.

Speaking on the occasion, Meghwal emphasised that while technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, 3D printing and the Internet of Things are rapidly advancing, “Artificial Intelligence cannot apply constitutional morality… the ultimate deciding factor in our lives will always be the human element guided by values.”

The event was graced by Justice K.R. Shriram, Chief Justice of the Rajasthan High Court, as Guest of Honour, and Justice L. Victoria Gowri of the Madras High Court, who delivered the keynote address. Swami Ramakrishnananda Puri, Treasurer and Trustee of Mata Amritanandamayi Math and Member of the University’s Executive Council, delivered the benedictory address.

The ceremony included the inauguration of AISL’s new Moot Court Hall and academic facilities. Dr Anil G. Variath, Dean of AISL, welcomed the gathering, while vice-chancellor Dr P. Venkat Rangan presented mementoes to the dignitaries. The programme concluded with a vote of thanks by registrar Dr P. Ajith Kumar.

Marking the culmination of a long-held aspiration, the Attorney General of India, R. Venkataramani, sent a congratulatory message, noting that the establishment of AISL had finally come to fruition.
