To provide effective legal aid, the Delhi State Legal Services Authority is to inaugurate Traffic Challan Help Desk on July 10, an official said on Friday.
The Traffic Challan Help Desk will provide legal assistance to the litigants who approach Traffic Courts for disposal of their challans.
"The Help Desk would be operated by one legal aid counsel along with one para-legal volunteer to explain the nature of accusation in the challan, the right to be represented by a counsel, the procedure of disposal of challan, possible punishment and implications to the challaned person," a DLSA spokesperson said.
The Traffic Help Desk for central and west Delhi districts would be inaugurated on July 10 by the Delhi High Court Acting Chief Justice, Justice Gita Mittal, at Tis Hazari Courts complex.
