JAIL MAIL – Legal Services Day 2020

As the legal services institutions (LSIs) in India complete their 25th year of existence this year, in this jail mail, CHRI presents a snapshot into the services provided by LSIs in the face of myriad challenges and restrictions caused by the pandemic. During this period LSIs have continued to provide immediate legal assistance for those in need and in the process have helped in the formulation of policies in response to the crisis. It also provides information on work undertaken by CHRI to strengthen legal services for persons in custody in the last year.
