The Department of Justice, Ministry of Law and Justice, Government of India, is organizing a Regional Workshop under the DISHA Scheme, a Central Sector Scheme being implemented by Department of Justice and ‘Reforms Utsav’ on 15th June 2026 from 01:00 PM onwards at the Govt. Degree College (PG) Auditorium, Dharamshala, Kangra, Himachal Pradesh.
The event is being organized as part of the Department’s continued commitment to strengthening access to justice, promoting legal awareness, fostering a culture of pro bono legal services, and showcasing the transformative reforms undertaken in the justice sector over the last twelve years.
The programme is expected to be graced by the Hon’ble Governor of Himachal Pradesh and the Hon’ble Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh along with Hon’ble Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Law and Justice
The programme will commence with the ceremonial proceedings, followed by a welcome address by the Secretary, Department of Justice, who will outline the vision behind the Regional Workshop and the Department’s ongoing efforts towards ensuring inclusive, affordable and accessible justice for all.
A major highlight of the event will be the launch of “Nyaya Prabodh – Awakening to Justice,” a year-long legal awareness campaign aimed at deepening citizens’ understanding of their constitutional and legal rights and responsibilities. The campaign seeks to strengthen legal literacy and encourage greater public participation in the justice delivery ecosystem.
Under the Nyaya Prabodh initiative, several citizen-centric activities will be launched, including:
- Know Your Rights in 90 seconds, a legal awareness initiative designed to promote greater understanding of legal rights and remedies among citizens;
- Nyaya Quiz, an interactive platform aimed at enhancing awareness of constitutional values, legal institutions and citizens’ rights, particularly among youth and students; and
- Pro Bono Pledge, encouraging advocates, law students and legal professionals to voluntarily contribute their knowledge and expertise for the benefit of the underprivileged and vulnerable sections of society.
The programme will also include a segment on the Pro Bono initiatives undertaken by Himachal Pradesh National Law University (HPNLU) with experience-sharing by faculty members and students engaged in community legal service.
