The program focuses on building the capacities of two persons in each Gram Panchayat, namely the Gram Pradhan and one grass-root level worker (AAA/SM/RS/BNV/SA/any other enthusiastic volunteer) and stresses at imparting functional knowledge under a three-day module on various legal constitutional protection, laws, entitlements, procedures and forums (especially with regard to free legal aid system).

A brief narrative of the specific limitations/problems experienced and the suggestions emanating thereof from the implementation of the project has been presented below ---- Performance Problems Despite elaborate institutional arrangement of Justice delivery System, especially Lok Adalat and Quasi Judicial Forum/Authority, the general public is not getting desired benefits resulting in long drawn litigation and huge pile-up of cases. There is disconnect between the general public and institution of Justice Delivery System and the Legal Professionals have a clash of interest, therefore they will not popularize the Lok Adalat System or Free Legal Aid System. Limitations and Solutions Adopted A series of semi-intensive campaigns (in addition to the already on-going intensive campaigns) has now been introduced. Focus of the events has now been altered to the household specific approach in contrast to the initially planned community level approach. Religious, Cultural and Social legacies emerging major barriers in legal empowerment and actualization of safeguards and entitlements. Challenges Faced Religious, Cultural and Social legacies emerging major barriers in legal empowerment and actualization of safeguards and entitlements. Free Legal Aids System and Para-Legal system need to be made more accessible, active and people friendly for optimum reach. It also emerged that people s representatives: MPs, MLAs, PRIs, Legal Professionals and Media have to be brought on board for effective and sustained impact.
5 Free Legal Aids System and Para-Legal system need to be made more accessible, active and people friendly for optimum reach. It also emerged that people s representatives: MPs, MLAs, PRIs, Legal Professional and Media have to be brought on board for effective and sustained impact. The need of hour is to remove disconnect between Justice Delivery System and general public, which can be done only through those organization/institutions which have extensive approach, expertise & experiences, will be involved. The experiment of Barabanki Pilot need to be scaled-up as much areas & population as possible, if not at one go, in a phased manner. The Legal Clinics & Para Legal Workers need to be trained in extension approach and methodology to make them more people friendly and missionary in approach.
6 QUARTERLY PROJECT REPORT 1. Background of the Project Around one-third of India s population have no formal education. Most of them live in rural areas, with social & economic barriers playing an important role in keeping the lowest strata of society illiterate. Even literates in the country are often helpless & confused in the face of a violation or infringement of a right enforceable in law/or entitlements under specific programs/schemes. It is a widely accepted fact across the country that most citizens are ignorant of their legal rights, human rights, civil liberties, constitutional mandates, specific entitlements through schemes/programs and other laws of the land aimed at defending & protecting our dignity, freedom, right to equality and access to justice. The Possible Solution The Indian society is filled with various categories of persons whose rights are violated regularly vulnerable groups, including schedules castes & scheduled tribes, women, children and the disabled. Many groups are historically oppressed and denied mainstream opportunities or are unable to function as the main-stream does. Majority of such groups are unable to take action to remedy their situation because they are not even aware that they are assured certain rights. Under the situation, one often wonders about the possible options for bringing about a qualitative change at the grassroots level; and in improving the level of awareness among citizens so as to facilitate a transparent and accountable governance system truly based on the Rule of Law. Most often it happens that the poor, the deprived or the exploited of the country remain poor and deprived and are unable to seek redress simply because they are not aware of the rights they are guaranteed and the remedies that are available. --- Justice Y.K. Sabharwal (Former Chief Justice of India) Improving Legal Literacy can be crucial in enabling citizens in becoming aware of their rights and empowering them to fight for their rights. Many experts believe that improving the level of legal literacy might be the possible alternative to this issue. When citizens, particularly marginalized or underprivileged groups, know what the law has to offer them, they can recognize and challenge injustices much more forcefully.
7 The first step towards that knowledge of law, which can transform people's lives, is legal literacy. In doing so, it is essential to use this knowledge as a tool for vulnerable groups to be able to understand and critique the law, to familiarize themselves with the scope of their rights under the law, and eventually to assert their rights as a means to take action and bring in change. 2. Objectives The objective of the pilot is two-fold, namely (i). spreading legal literacy and awareness among general masses to access formal justice delivery system; and (ii). to avail various entitlements created by the Government of India GoI and/or the State Government through various social legislations, laws & rules and the like. The coverage of the Legal Literacy Project spans 10 Development Blocks in district Barabanki of Uttar Pradesh. 3.

It also emerged that people s representatives: MPs, MLAs, PRIs, Legal Professionals and Media have to be brought on board for effective and sustained impact. 10. Suggested strategies The need of the hour is to adopt a decentralized approach towards the design and implementation of the project thereby ensuring the active participation of all stakeholders at the ground level. It might be advantageous to scale-up and implement the project through institutions: that have an established presence right from the State, District, down to the Village levels, that possess a well-established relationship with existing departments and agencies at the State / National level,
10 that possess a close working relationship with the ground-level representatives, including PRI functionaries, and that possess a fluid structure enabling them to adopt mid-course corrections in their operational strategy. 11. Media Coverage
