Five designated senior advocates of the Supreme Court and the High Court of Karnataka will join the University Law College as visiting faculty.
Former advocate generals of Karnataka — Prof Ravivarma Kumar, Uday Holla, senior advocates of Supreme Court Mohan V Katarki, Basavaprabhu S Patil and senior advocate at the high court Jayna Kothari — have consented to serve as honorary visiting professors for two years, the college said in a statement.

"The college will invite senior advocates as distinguished visiting faculty for two years," he said.
