It strives to safeguard the constitutional and legal rights of every individual, ensuring justice, equality, and fairness for all.
Honourable Justice K.G. Balakrishnan – former Chief Justice of India, Honourable Justice Kurian Joseph – former Judge of the Supreme Court of India and Honourable Justice C.S. Rajan – former Judge of Kerala High Court are the patrons of Pravasi Legal Cell. All these years of eventful existence, Pravasi Legal Cell has been able to help thousands of Indians who faced injustice in India and abroad. Pravasi Legal Cell has actively taken up numerous matters concerning the rights and welfare of Pravasis before the appropriate government authorities and the judiciary. Through its persistent advocacy and constructive engagement, the organisation has been instrumental in securing effective interventions and facilitating timely resolutions to issues of significant concern to the Pravasi community.
Pravasi legal cell had its inspired and enthusiastic beginning when the need of opening the doors of justice to people who cannot walk the lengthy and costly route of grievance redressal system was felt strongly. Having no voice is no reason for anyone to suffer injustice and to live with it. The aim of rendering voice to the voiceless and demanding justice for people who have no access to the system, either due to ignorance or due to lack, has been the motivational force behind this endeavor.
The cell has completed a decade of its fruitful and happening existence. The smile that justice brings on the face of people, otherwise harassed and made hopeless by situations, guides its journey ahead, further motivated and inspired.
