About SAMATVA
SAMATVA stands for equality, justice, and inclusion. From Lok Adalat awareness drives to street vendor legal support, prison outreach programs, and disability rights workshops, we take legal aid beyond the classroom and into the heart of communities. Our mission? To bridge the gap between legal rights and real-world justice while empowering marginalized groups.
SAMATVA’s relentless commitment earned recognition at SAMVAD 2024, a state-level consultation on disability rights organized by the Hon’ble High Court of Madhya Pradesh, MPSLSA, and UNICEF Bhopal, where our recommendations were taken into consideration for state policy reforms.
