The Free Legal Aid Group (FLAG) is established under the patronage of Modern Law College, to provide free and quality legal services to the needy people in the Society. The same would also provide the existing students with first hand exposure to advocacy and skills of legal profession like interaction with clients, drafting, conveyance and preparation of petitions, applications and litigations.
