Terms & Conditions

Adhikar is a free, independently run website that explains Indian citizens' rights and the laws behind them in plain language. Adhikar is not a Government of India website and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated on behalf of any government body, ministry, or department.

By using this website, you agree to these Terms & Conditions. If you don't agree with them, please don't use the site.

Everything on Adhikar — including rights-category pages, Constitution and BNSS explainers, blog posts, and FAQ content — is general legal information for educational purposes. It is not legal advice and should not be relied on as a substitute for consulting a qualified advocate about your specific situation.

Laws, procedures, helpline numbers, and portal links can change after this content was published. Always verify time-sensitive or high-stakes information (like the exact section of a law, or whether a helpline number still works) against the official source linked on the relevant page before acting on it.

We research every page carefully and try to keep it current, but we make no warranty — express or implied — that the content on Adhikar is complete, accurate, or up to date at the moment you read it. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Adhikar and its operators are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your reliance on information found on this site.

If you spot something inaccurate or outdated, please tell us — this only works if it stays accurate, and we act on corrections quickly.

Many pages link to official government portals, helplines, and other external resources (like a "verify this" search link for a legal citation or court case). We don't control these third-party sites and aren't responsible for their content, availability, or accuracy. Links are provided for your convenience.

The written content, design, and layout of Adhikar are the work of the Adhikar team. You're welcome to share links to our pages. If you'd like to republish or substantially reuse our content elsewhere, please contact us first and credit Adhikar with a link back.

We may revise these Terms & Conditions from time to time as Adhikar grows. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms. We recommend checking this page occasionally if you rely on the site regularly.
