Abstract: 
Legal education is one of the fastest growing sectors. But at the same time the said stream of education is suffering from the various challenges. Presently it is lacking in legal research, which is important for the growth and improvement of the legal education. The one main reason for the same is the excessive workload on teacher and student. Socratic method and visits are the good way to improve the research and classroom teaching. But in the present system the said application is difficult to practice. There is need to revise the UGC norms and improve our course curriculum.
