'Niyama
Sameeksha' (NISA, The Legal Observer) in its each
issue focuses on topics of legal importance
disseminating views of all shades and colours.
The release of each issue itself is made an occasion
for Legal Literacy. Invariably a seminar is also
organized to synchronize with the release of each
issue by "Niyama Sameeksha".
Niyama Sameeksha is having a slot in kochi FM
station to broad cast legal news under the Caption
NIYAMA VEDHI through which public is informed about
the important judgments of various Courts.Some of
the recent broadcasts from FM are Family Court
Judgments, Consumer Forum Judgments and other legal
themes.
Niyama Sameeksha is aimed to bring about legal
literacy among the people of the lowest strata of
the society who are quite often victims of
exploitation.
They are at times even denied basic facilities of
life. Slum dwellers, juvenile delinquents,
laboureres, head load workers, and persons engaged
in odd jobs require special attention being people
deprived of basic facilities of life.
The areas where low-income groups live remain
backward for lack of initiative, coupled with their
ignorance. It is also experienced that some times
the affluent sections choose the back Ward areas for
dumping their waste, threatening their health and
the very existence of the under privileged classes.
Local bodies, despite their statutory duty, opt to
remain indifferent even in the face of such inhuman
and derogatory actions.
Being an organization having direct information
about such activities, we propose to take up some
initiative in bringing awareness among backward
classes regarding their legal rights and remedies
available in law to ameliorate their sufferings.
In doing so it translates into action many messages
of Sree Narayana Guru in social justice area. His
pronouncement that "There is no greater teacher than
reading" is followed with all spheres of
activities.
