The Karnataka State Law University (KSLU) was established in January 2009, by the Government of Karnataka under the Karnataka State Law University Act, 2009, with its headquarters at Navanagar, Hubli. It is a " People"s University" with an aspiration to provide quality legal education totally socially relevant and accessible to everyone. The KSLU, located in the State of Karnataka, is the singl...e largest federal university in the country having 92 colleges under its umbrella.
KSLU is plausibly the first institution, imparting higher education, to have an Assembly every morning, lead by the Hon"ble Vice-Chancellor on the main campus and by the respective Principals of the affiliated colleges wherein the National Anthem is sung. The staff and students of KSLU, including the affiliated law colleges, don Khadi attire every Monday, creating a sense of belonging, integration, and nationality. On the main campus, the staff and students wear Khadi dresses in a combination of blue and white, the sky blue color signifying tolerance and white, purity. The main intent underlying this initiative of singing the National Anthem every day and wearing Khadi every Monday is to inculcate patriotism among law students.

Already the Training School building with well-equipped classrooms and auditorium, Pariksha Bhavan- the Examination Section of the University, Guest House and a Boys Hostel have come up. The second floor is being added to all these buildings. The construction of the Law School building is initiated. This is going to be the iconic building of the University.
