Law College Road
The Indian Law society's very old and prestigious ILS Law College has a campus extending to a large section on the right side of this road, and giving its name to the road.
The road is rather straight, starting at the intersection of BMCC road-Senapati Bapat road junction, right opposite to the NCC Parade ground, and flowing steadily on a sloping gradient up to Nal stop on Karve road at Pune's busiest road junction.
The famous Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), the National Film Archive of India (NFAI) and Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute are located here. Primarily an area for academics, this is a very quiet and safe residential locality of Pune, containing posh areas like Kanchan Galli. The lane goes up to the beautiful Hanuman Tekdi and the Hanuman Temple. The important Educational institutions of Abhinav Vidyalaya and INDSEARCH lie on this road. Evenings and mornings, this road experiences terrible traffic jams at the Nal stop junction. This road is one of the few roads still having a cool green cover on both sides in the form of old tall full grown trees. There are many good food joints including Cafe Coffee Day, Barista and Mochaa. It is yet another road which has not been properly maintained by the Pune Municipal Corporation with constant drainage damage at the signal near Gurukul school.

“O Russia! O my wife! Our long and narrow Road lies clear though distressed.
Our road with an old Tatar freedom’s arrow Has deeply pierced our breast.”
