About the Program

Rights of citizens have direct link with their knowledge about the law of the land. Most of the citizens, especially among the marginalized sections, are ignorant of their rights and therefore very often their rights are violated or ignored. To prevent this, awareness programs, training sessions, seminars and campaigns are conducted or facilitated targeting Organizations and the public.
