New Delhi: Abhishek Singhvi, who heads the Congress department of law, human rights and RTI, said on Sunday that the party department will host young lawyers as legal fellows for three months to provide them an opportunity to assist the Congress parliamentarians and thus understand the working of the Opposition party and its social media.
“The INC Legal Fellows programme, designed to engage young minds who are inquisitive and inclined towards the ideals, rules, and principles for which the Congress stands for…”, Singhvi said at a presser.
The party department will also launch a scheme to focus on reactivating the Right To Information Act. Another initiative will be the starting of a podcast of senior lawyers and eminent persons to articulate on subjects of national importance. Singhvi announced these initiatives of his party department, incidentally, when his Rajya Sabha term from Telangana is now due for renomination.
