A large section of the populace in developing societies such as India remains a victim of discrimination, and is prevented from procuring justice by ignorance, illiteracy, poverty, and lack of trust in the judicial machinery. This discrimination is meted out along gender, caste, sexual, racial, religious, and economic lines. Providing affordable and effective means to vulnerable groups in developing societies to access the legal machinery is imperative to deter their continued victimization.
Dhwani Legal Trust aspires to fulfill this need of providing women, children, persons with disability, victims of social oppression, and other socially and educationally backward sections of the society, with accessible legal aid, and to make them aware of their rights prescribed by the Law.
Dhwani was founded in 2019. Since then, the organization has assisted several women in distress and members of other vulnerable groups, and carried out a number of legal awareness sessions and campaigns. Dhwani has acquired exemptions under Sections 12A and 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961, making it eligible to accept grants and donations, as well as CSR grants.
