On Sunday, the Congress party unveiled a series of initiatives designed to engage young people in legal matters and reinforce the original Right to Information (RTI) Act. Spearheaded by Congress officials Ajay Maken and Abhishek Singhvi, these programs aim to invigorate young minds in legal advocacy and policy-making.
A key component is the Congress Legal Fellows Program, targeting young lawyers to help parliamentarians navigate legal complexities. Additionally, the party is introducing a podcast series, 'Nyaya Neta aur Nagrik', to foster discussions on societal and legal issues featuring seasoned and budding advocates alike.
With plans for a rapid legal response force and a national conclave on the RTI Act, the Congress seeks to elevate its role in safeguarding democracy and transparency. These detailed efforts are expected to culminate in comprehensive public reports and recommendations for legislative enhancements.
