About the Organisation
Amity Law School, Noida is an institution of repute that has always channelled its resources wisely into providing high-quality education and other developmental opportunities to its students.
The Legal Awareness and Literacy Committee, acts as a channel of information by disseminating general socio-legal knowledge to the public at large, through its various camps, symposiums, workshops and seminars.
About the Blog
Legal Awareness and Literacy Committee was established in the year 2011 with the purpose to educate people with basic legal knowledge. The dearth of awareness about one’s legal rights has often kept certain sections of society in the dark. We, the students, along with our faculty members have been working diligently to let everyone be a responsible citizen and find a medium to assert what’s rightfully theirs. We have conducted multiple webinars, workshops and various informative camps at various locations. To date, we have been continuously aiming towards providing legal aid and awareness and helping those who need us.
The Legal Awareness and Literacy Committee’s blog is filled with a bunch of resources for those who share an interest in legal research articles, and also who seek a platform for their articles to reach a larger audience, intending to spill fresh content actively.
With the hope to provide value to our audience, we have come up with our blog to enrich the minds of our readers and give them an accessible resource of legitimate information.
