Letter To Police Statoin

OutLawed India | Nyaaya Mitra Police Visit

To whomsoever it may concern, 

OutLawed India is a Section 8 not-for-profit company working towards enabling last mile justice delivery.  We have a founding team of lawyers and policy graduates who are alumna of the National Law School of India. We’ve trained over 4000 people to build legal awareness and citizen skills, including workshops for labour unions, government school students, and a contract with the Delhi government to train Anganwadi workers. 

In the past two years we piloted the Nyaaya Mitra Programme to train individuals from underserved communities as paralegals to provide essential first-point-of-contact legal aid. We have partnered with various organisations including Vathsalya, Swatantra, Ananya Charitable Trust, Garment Workers Union, Domestic Workers Union and ASHA Workers to identify community leaders who can provide these legal services. Our Nyaaya Mitras have successfully assisted their communities in navigating complex legal issues with confidence and ease. 

As part of the Nyaaya Mitra Initiative we encourage our Nyaaya Mitras to visit local government bodies, including police stations. This is a part of their training on criminal law so as to enable them to assist their community members in filing complaints at police stations as and when necessary. We request you to please welcome the Nyaaya Mitras from the OutLawed Team at your police station. We believe that they can be a help to the community and the police in ensuring that citizens are able to access law and justice.

Warm regards,
Lakshmi T. Nambiar
