Month 4 · Indian courts and the National Human Rights Commission
No eviction without notice or review
India's MuslimsThe ask
Indian courts: enforce the Supreme Court's rulings against punitive demolitions and evictions carried out on a day's notice or without review.
Why
The Supreme Court has already ruled against punitive demolitions. Contempt petitions by legal-aid lawyers, and habeas corpus petitions for Kashmiris held after Pahalgam, go through the courts and not the captured India–Bangladesh border talks.
What you can do
- Set up a document clinic at your mosque using the help-desk guide. It covers name corrections, roll-revision appeals, Foreigners Tribunal hearings and eviction challenges.
- Use the legal aid app to refer families facing eviction or detention to legal-aid lawyers, with priority for women and the poor.
- Lawyers: volunteer to file contempt petitions under the November 2025 and February 2026 rulings, and habeas corpus petitions for Kashmiris held after Pahalgam.
- Help families keep copies of notices and documents. The app stores only minimal, encrypted data.
