About the Legal Aid Clinic
The NLIU – Legal Aid Clinic (“LAC”), which is driven by the ethos of Article 39A of the Indian Constitution, has been established under the aegis of the National Legal Services Authority. It is a student-run initiative, which aims to provide free legal aid to the marginalized sections of the society.
The aim is to provide pro bono legal representation and advice to the weak and downtrodden sections of the society. Additionally, they also organize various legal literacy workshops and training programs to spread legal awareness and to further the cause of legal literacy.
