The State Legal Services Authority (SLSA) will start an awareness campaign for transgenders as they belong to “extremely marginalised” section of society.

Key Points:

• An appeal made to the youth to come forward to create legal awareness in society, particularly in rural areas, by joining the SLSA as para legal volunteers.
• SC, ST, women, children, transgenders, prisoners, mentally ill people, drug addicts, calamity-affected people and the elderly having annual income below Rs 3 lakh were eligible to get the SLSA’s free legal support.
