Legal assistance has always come at hefty costs or has involved lengthy queues before a lawyer’s office in India. This is no longer true, as the Ministry of Law and Justice is now providing it free of charge through its project, Nyaya Setu.

What’s more impressive is that the service runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so that the Indian citizens can get guidance without travelling anywhere.
