Legal cell of Streevani was initiated in 2006 as a response to the increasing number of women subjected to Domestic Violence and other forms of violence. Since the past 14 years over 5000 women have received legal assistance through Streevani legal cell.
Our team of lawyers with feminist legal strategies and court room experiences have been helping women from across class and community to access justice through litigation, mediation and counselling.
