Launching 2 October 2026 · Voice-first legal rights
अपने अधिकार जानिए।
बस पूछिए।
At a police checkpoint, in a landlord dispute, when wages aren't paid — DHARA gives you a first answer, spoken in your language, cited from law.
How it works
No section numbers. No legal jargon. No English required. DHARA meets people where they are.
Speak naturally — in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, or Bengali. No need to know the legal term or the section number. Just describe what happened.
A plain two-sentence answer first. The specific section of law behind it. Where an advocate has verified the answer, you see their name and enrolment number.
The right helpline number. The right government office. A clear signal when the situation requires a lawyer — and when it does not.
For citizens
These are real situations where knowing one section of law can change what happens next.
"पुलिस ने मुझे रोका है — मेरे अधिकार क्या हैं?"
Police have stopped me — what are my rights?
Police rights · BNSS"मकान मालिक बिना नोटिस के मुझे निकाल रहा है।"
My landlord is evicting me without notice.
Tenant rights · Rent Control"मेरी तनख्वाह नहीं मिली। अब क्या करूँ?"
I haven't been paid. What can I do?
Labour rights · Code on Wages"क्या पुलिस रात को गिरफ्तार कर सकती है?"
Can police arrest a woman at night?
Women's rights · BNSS §43(5)"जमीन के झगड़े में पहले क्या करना चाहिए?"
What's the first step in a property dispute?
Property law · Transfer of Property Act"FIR दर्ज करने से पुलिस मना कर रही है।"
Police are refusing to register my FIR.
FIR rights · BNSS §173What DHARA does
Every feature exists to help someone without a legal background make a better decision.
Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Marathi, and Bengali are live. Powered by Bhashini — the Government of India's national language AI — with a device fallback.
Every answer traces to a specific section of law. Section numbers come from the database, not from the model. DHARA does not guess.
DHARA checks if a section has been struck down by the Supreme Court. A citizen is never told a repealed or invalidated law is still valid — including IT Act §66A.
No walls of legal text. Start with a plain answer in your language. Ask for more detail when you want it.
For domestic violence, harassment, and urgent situations — verified Indian helplines appear automatically. DHARA never leaves someone without a next step.
Enrolled advocates can verify answers in their specialisation. Verified responses show the advocate's name and Bar Council enrolment number.
Lawyer mode
DHARA supports advocates with deeper statutory context and better client preparation — while keeping the citizen's right to understand at the centre.
Lawyer Mode is rolling out. Register your interest to be among the first advocates on the platform.

The free tier exists because a paywall at a police checkpoint would betray the product's purpose. Paid tiers let us build and maintain the platform.
The core rights-information experience is never paywalled. Know your rights — free, always.
For people who need legal information more than five times a day — or who want more from each answer.
Professional tools for enrolled advocates. Earn free months by verifying corpus answers in your specialisation.
About DHARA
Every citizen has the right to understand the law that governs them — in their own language, spoken aloud if needed.
DHARA is built on the conviction that legal knowledge is not a privilege. The corpus covers 70,000+ sections of law from the Government of India's official repository. Every answer is traced to a source. Where a section has been struck down by the Supreme Court, DHARA says so. We launch on 2 October 2026 — Gandhi Jayanti — because the right to know the law that governs you should be universal.
DHARA gives you information about your rights. It is not a substitute for a lawyer, and it will always tell you when you need one.
The About screen of DHARA credits the two people most responsible for the legal rights it helps citizens assert. Their disagreement on caste was real and is acknowledged — not smoothed over.
