About Kerala Law Academy (KLA)

Established in 1966, KERALA LAW ACADEMY (KLA) is a seat of excellence in legal education, consultancy, research, and in pioneering law reforms. The Academy’s prestigious institute, “the Kerala Law Academy Law College” is in Trivandrum, the capi Academy Law College” is in Trivandrum, the capital city of Kerala, India, on a hill of sylvan splendours with a view of the Arabian Sea on one side and the Western Ghats on the other. The liberal ambience of the research wing “The Centre for Advanced Legal Studies and Research” (CALSAR), is conducive to igniting nascent thoughts and ideals. This finds vivid expression in “Academy Law Review” which has won international acclaim ever since its appearance in print in 1977. The moot teams of the Academy are the flag bearers in renowned international fora. The Academy’s social commitment is embedded in its socio-legal clinics and consultancy service. The college of law of the Academy is affiliated with the University of Kerala. The Kerala Law Academy is an organization of distinguished law persons. It is a society and was formed by eminent judges, lawyers & academicians. It is truly secular in all respects and does not represent any sectional, denominational, ethnic, racial, or communal interest. The growth of the Academy, as then envisaged, was three dimensional. A department for legal education, another department for legal publication and a third one for legal advice were proposed to be established and developed. It was decided that the Department of Legal Education should be launched first, with the starting of a Law College. In 1968 the Academy made a request to the Government of Kerala to lease out an area of eleven acres and forty nine cents at Peroorkada, Trivandrum for establishing the Kerala Law Academy Law College. Mainly owing to the keen interest of Mr. M.N. Govindan Nair, who was the Minister for agriculture then, in the development of the institution, this request was granted by the Government. Mr. E.M.S. Namboodiripad, who was the Chief Minister, Mrs. K.R. Gowri and Mr. C.H. Mohammed Koya (who were ministers in charge of Revenue and Education respectively) were also very helpful in this regard. The Academy took possession of the land and buildings on 29th February, 1968.
