The SSSIHL Annual convocation, held every year on 22 November, forms an integral part of the Academic Calendar of SSSIHL. The format, planning and execution of the ceremony is second to none. The sentiments of this special day are aptly reflected in the oath that the students take during the Convocation ceremony, in the Divine presence of the Revered Founder Chancellor. You can read the report and press release of the latest SSSIHL Convocation here.

Over the last three decades, Presidents, Prime Ministers and Cabinet Ministers of the Government of India, Chief Ministers and Governors of Indian States, ardent devotees and many educationists and legal luminaries have had the honour of being the Chief Guest of the SSSIHL Convocation, in the Divine presence.
