TITLE :FULFILLING THE PROMISE OF LEGAL AID – ROLE OF NGO

ABSTRACT:

Laws are made to protect people to live with dignity. However, many litigants could not access justice due to illiteracy, poverty or fear to face the court procedure. A need is felt to provide legal aid.  The paper looks into recommendations made by International conventions and at national level, in several committees and commissions. Though legislations are enacted, yet the purpose has gone unnerved. Now, State is supported in this field by NGOs. NGOs render services in legal aid and advice, legal literacy, public interest litigation, legal aid clinics and legal research and advocacy etc. Several judicial decisions also support the contribution Fulfilling the Promise of Legal Aid – Role of NGO
