Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressing a conference on Legal Services Day
Prime Minister Narendra Modi addresses a conference on the occasion of Legal Services Day today in New Delhi.
Here are the highlights- I believe in 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas' and with that there must be 'Sabka Nyay'
- Happy that discussions are being held on how poor will get justice. I have been able to learn a lot being here
- Our Law universities should give special assignments to students to do research on Lok Adalats across the country
- They should submit reports and give suggestions. Students should know what Lok Adalats are.
- With legal awareness, there must also be institutional awareness. People must know the systems that are in place
- I feel more and more people must know what our Lok Adalats are about
- When I was Chief Minister in Gujarat, the justice in Lok Adalats was given in very short span.
- There are more than 15 lakh Lok Adalats, 8.5 crore people have got justice. In a way it is 17 crore because there are two parties in every dispute
- Governments should be dedicated and committed to justice
- After Bhuj earthquake when lakhs were displaced, that time I requested the High Court for help
- 30,000 claims were settled without any case being taken forward by the state
- We must study institutions with neutral mindsets
- We have given the labourers a unique ID card number. This will help the labourers immensely in several ways
- We need to amend and make new laws for transgenders
