RLEK (Rural Litigation and Entitlement Kendra)
The primary aim of RLEK is to fight the cause of the under-privileged. Hence, RLEK began with the objective of getting the underprivileged their due. The aim was to get whatever was legally due to them. Thus, the first recourse was through legal remedy. But, if legal remedies were not available, RLEK aimed to prompt the government to bring out new laws to further the cause. For this RLEK also organised the poor.
Current campaigns focus on the cause of the Van Gujjars, nomadic tribes-people of Uttar Pradesh and Himachal Pradesh. The campaigns include literacy, elementary health, and veterinary care, community forest management, and Panchayat Raj enfranchisement education.
