Legal awareness is essential for empowering individuals and strengthening society. It helps people understand their rights, responsibilities, and the legal remedies available to them, ensuring they can navigate the legal system effectively. This type of awareness contributes to the reduction of discrimination and injustice by ensuring that everyone, regardless of their background, knows the law and can defend their rights. It gives individuals the confidence to challenge unfair practices, report crimes, and hold authorities accountable. Therefore to educate people about their rights the Indian Institute of Legal Studies Coochbehar has been conducting legal awareness programs at various schools as well as colleges.
