'We need more law awareness programs like this': Says participants to STARTT


The Law awareness program organized by STARTT-PTP was well attended by members of public. Participants from various parts of the Bangalore city were excited to have well accomplished law experts teaching them Law in a very simple manner. Chandrasekhar, who attended our earlier awareness program as well, said: 'I don't want to miss any of the STARTT programs henceforth. We got more than what we expected from these programs'.

The program was inaugurated by Shri Hormis Tharakan IPS (Retd), former Chief of RAW and Retired Director General of Police, Kerala. In his speech, he narrated several experiences of common people, how they gained and lost due to their awareness or ignorance of law respectively. He said every citizen should be aware of various legal provisions. 'No one can exploit you if you are aware of the law of the land.'




Rev Dr Thomas Kallukalam CMI welcomed the Chief guest, the resource persons and the volunteers. Dr Thomas Kallukalam, who is the Director of STARTT said that knowledge brings real power and one should not miss any opportunity to learn. Dr Sibichen K Mathew IRS introduced the chief guest. Rev Dr James Pampara CMI was the guest of honour.
