Teen-in-Law.

Introduction:

1. With the advancement of human potency in the 21st century, the

teenagers in India, like in all over the globe, have a different role to play, in the

over all growth of the nation. The concept of converting the human power,

available for transformation of Nation into a super-power, has been pronounced by

the Hon’ble Former President of India, Sri. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. Thus, it is the

need of the hour, to provide better amenity to our present children, to shape their

future, in the spirit, as enshrined in our Constitution.

1.1 To streamline the fertile energy of the nation and to transform it into

virtue, the teenage population of the district of Chitradurga, is to be concentrated,

under a specific, well-planned and intensive programme, to spread legal awareness,

so as to strengthen the unconventional justice delivery system. In association with

the government agencies and N.G.Os, it is proposed to launch a phase-mannered

programme, like ‘Teen-in-Law’, at the initial stage, which covers the entire teenage

group of the population, in the district of Chitradurga, under the systematic and

informal legal education.

1.2 Regarding teenagers, outside the school/ college campus, specific

programmes are to be scheduled, with the tie-up, with continuing Adult Education

Programme, Zilla Parishad and other functionaries concerned.

Statement Of Subject:

11

2. ‘Teen-in-Law’, refers to the youths, between the age of 13 years to 19

years, as a fertile group under this campaign, who have a long way to go in the

present generation. The forceful capacity to perceive, understand and receive

innovative ideas; react to progressive changes; a dream to build a new world of

scar free, but healthy society; imbibing rich values, are the factors to be kept in

mind, to cover this group, at the initial stage. After imparting legal education to

this group, they can be converted into fertile local resource, for other activities, at

the grass-root-level, in co-ordination with Legal Services Authority. This,

obviously, leads to strengthen ‘Nyaya Panchayath System’. After the first phase

programme, ‘Fair-in-Law’ i.e. the fair sect of the human population, in the district

of Chitradurga, is to be covered, under this Intensive Legal Literacy Campaign.

Objectives:

• To impart legal literacy intensively.

• To train the fertile group of population, with legal

awareness.

• To make use of this core group, as a tie-up legal

resources for L.S.A.

• To implement other National programmes like Micro

Literacy, National Rural Employment Guarantee

Scheme and others, as directed by NLSA.

Methodology:

4. After collecting the data of this teenage group in the district, a trial based

programme will be launched in one of Taluks, covering all the schools and

colleges, specially from 8th

standard to II year Degree, with the specified syllabus,

for a period of one month. There will be regular teaching, during school/ college

12

hours, by the teachers themselves, for 45 to 50 minutes a day, and at the end of the

month, a test will be conducted, followed by certificates to the successful students,

by the SLSA. The students, who obtain certificates, are to be encouraged in the

academic career, wherever possible, like, with grace marks or otherwise.

4.1 To train this teenagers, to impart legal education, as per the syllabus

scheduled by the DLSA, a work shop is to be conducted, well in advance, and

incentive may be given to these teachers, if possible.

4.2 After completing the campaign, with regard to the school/ college

going students of this teenage group, the youths of this group, outside the school/

college campus, are to be concentrated, at second phase, by holding Adult

Education Programme, in co-ordination with the functionary concerned, again for a

period of one month. This course will also be performed by conducting a test,

even may be oral test, for illiterates, and issuance of certificates accordingly, with

an incentive from the Village Panchayath or Taluk panchayath, to get priority

among beneficiaries, under government schemes.

4.3 In the third phase, by using these youth population, the DLSA plans to

impart Legal Literacy Programme, for the entire women population of this district.

Conclusion:

5. Having regard to the illiteracy, poverty, lack of access to justice and

socio-cultural restraints on children and women, to get themselves exposed to the

world, the intensive programme would work out, in the better way, so as to cover

the entire population under ILLC. This kind of campaign will meet the challenges

13

of docket exclusion and strengthen the right to life of a common man. The slow,

but steady campaign, with individual attention, would yield commendable results

at the macro level.

Report, on Intensive Legal Literacy Campaign,

launched from 11th

July 2009, at Chitradurga district:

The activities, one undertake either under obligation, or as an

innovative approach, towards the other, must be preceded with a clear objective, to

see that the purpose of such act, and the amount of efforts, shall yield maximum

fruits, though not 100% result. In addition to Legal Literacy work, an attempt is

being made from the author, to see that the efforts of Legal Services Authority, in

imparting Legal Literacy Programmes, creating awareness amongst general public,

can be strengthened further, with intensive activities investing same amount of

energy, time and expenses. The systematic spreading of legal awareness,

concentrating the structured group, based on age, gender and socio-cultural

backgrounds, with scientific approach, no doubt, can achieve the object, more

efficiently and effectively. Therefore, Intensive Legal Literacy Campaign, as the

brain child of the Chairperson, District Legal Services Authority, Chitradurga, is
