Report on the play 'Daakiya Drugs Laaya'
Daakiya drugs laaya is a journey from law to justice, from simple to complex and from hatred to love. It encompasses the role of free legal aid in delivering justice to the needy. Law students, lawyers or anyone else from the legal fraternity has a duty towards the society. But in today’s scenario this duty is being ignored because of greed. Greed ultimately feeds the ego and there is love no more. Whereas some sense of social responsibility not only caters others but one’s own being as well. This concern for society is an essential faculty of human character. Those who feel it and put in their efforts to make the society a better place, ultimately find their own selves replenished.

Orientation Programme by YP Foundation
February 21, 2012
YP Foundation, a youth run and led organization¸ which is supporting and enabling young people to create programmes and influence policies in the areas of gender, sexuality, health, education, the arts and governance approached Legal Aid Society, Campus Law Centre to encourage students to support them in acheving in their objective as volunteers in their various programmes like VOICES- The School Project, The Right to Information Programme etc. The volunteers were basically required to work on issues of deprived and underprivileged class, visiting the slums for identification of their problems and thus mobilizing them and to help in fulfilling the admission procedural requirements of the underprivileged children basically trying to invoke their main motive of spreading literacy among maximum children as possible. Thus the orientation given by the team of YP Foundation proved to be of a great motivation for the students and encouraged many students to join their causes as volunteers and the team was also convinced that their sincerity and knowledge in law would prove to be a great asset for their organisation.
