Who Are We?

The Legal Aid and Awareness Committee (LAAC) was established at National Law University Jodhpur with a founding belief that access to justice is a right — not a privilege. Born out of the academic rigour and social consciousness of NLU Jodhpur, LAAC has evolved from a student study group into one of Rajasthan's most active student-led legal aid organisations.

Today, LAAC operates at the intersection of law, community, and policy. Our volunteers and researchers work relentlessly on legal awareness campaigns, grassroots outreach, policy engagement initiatives, and structured legal aid programmes — empowering individuals who might otherwise be left without recourse in the justice system.
