The Government of India has made legal help easier than ever. You can now get free legal information and advice directly on WhatsApp through Nyaya Setu, a digital legal support platform. The Ministry of Law and Justice announced this new update on Thursday, saying the move will help citizens access legal guidance quickly and without hassle. What is Nyaya Setu? Nyaya Setu is a government-backed digital platform launched in August 2024. Its main goal is to make legal help simple, fast, and accessible for everyone. Instead of dealing with long paperwork or visiting offices, citizens can get basic legal guidance online. With its new WhatsApp integration, Nyaya Setu becomes even more user-friendly. In a post on X, the Ministry said the service ensures that “professional legal assistance is always swift and accessible for every citizen.” Why it matters WhatsApp is one of the most widely used apps in India. By bringing Nyaya Setu to WhatsApp, the government has removed a major barrier to legal access. People can now seek legal information from their phones, anytime, without needing technical knowledge or travel. This step is especially helpful for those living in remote areas or anyone who feels confused by legal procedures. How to use Nyaya Setu on WhatsApp Getting started is simple: The chatbot will show options such as legal advice, legal information, and legal assistance. You will be asked to verify your mobile number first. After verification, you can chat and receive legal guidance. During testing, the verification step showed an error, but users can still access legal information and assistance without verification for now. Who can use it? Nyaya Setu on WhatsApp is available to all users in India. It works on Android, iOS, and WhatsApp Web, making legal help truly accessible for everyone.
