Rights in which Mr. Danish Gupta, C.J.M Ambala was the Chief Guest. The Convenor of the cell,

about the role of the District Legal Services Authority and its relevance for common citizens. He
pointed out that any individual can approach the Legal Services office for free legal aid. By
distributing pamphlets about the legal services, he made it clear to the students that it is their
responsibility to educate their parents and neighbors about basic legal rights. In an interactive
way, he discussed the process by which one can reach the DLSA for free consultation and
drafting of petitions. He highlighted the method that needs to be kept in mind before filing any
complaint. At the end of the lecture, there was a question-answer session that showed the
curiosity of college students to know more about DLSA.
