Project- Northeast


The northeast of India has consistently been plagued by problems of infiltration and insurgency. The existence of over 60 different armed groups in the area attest to the fact that there is something fundamentally wrong. The cause may be the lack of a political will to take appropriate action or it may lie in the fact that the people involved are taking unfair advantage of the underdeveloped state of the region. The answer can only be derived if one makes a close study of the facts involved. Taking just one side of the story is not enough. One must take into account the views of all the different parties involved to draw a definite conclusion. However, we cannot overlook the fact that whatever be the cause, in the end it is the common people who pay the price in this struggle.

Legal Literacy Module for School Children


The Legal Aid Society of Campus Law Centre has taken up a project to develop a module on legal literacy for school children studying in class IX to XII. The module should address the fundamentals of the concept & structure of law, the court system, rights & duties, etc. and then it should deal with specific issues relevant for children such as ragging, sexual harassment, drug abuse, RTI, RTE, environment, human trafficking, traffic rules, etc. This project will have 2 components:
  •    Preparation of module
  •    Conducting legal literacy classes in schools with the help of the module

This will be a student led project whereby the chosen students will be asked to prepare a module in a format which is attractive to children preferably containing text, cartoons and illustrations. Also we should make something in English as well as Hindi. The module will be in the form of booklet as well as a structured presentation. Once we have prepared the module then we could go to schools and other target areas to interact with children.
