Modus Operandi: We try to achieve our objectives in a multipronged way –
We liaise, organize and work with the civil society groups, NGO’s and social activists of this region who is concerned about Rights Based issues. Besides this, we also hold awareness meetings so that people and communities are sensitized and mobilized to demand their legal rights and entitlement from the government authorities.
And whenever there is real need of legal support from our side we take litigation in the court or offer our expertise in the procedural law or process of justice. Access to justice will not be limited to courts alone but rather it would extend to Commission, Tribunals, Committees, Grievance Redressal Forums and other statutory bodies. This would be taken pro-bono or at a very nominal fees so that common man could access and approach us at any given point of time....
