My sincere request- please do whatever little you can do as a legal service activist- my concern goes to you Raw, -edit it, rewrite it and please share it---Legal Services Authority infrastructure raised in this country during last two decades has an opportunity to prove its relevance at this moment in reference with Uttarakhand tragedy
- Those affected are not organised
They come from all parts of India
Locals are left with even no evidence about themselves what to say of means.
Local official data, records are destroyed.
Dead are dead but there is no evidence of their death.
No body is there to certify a death,
Locals must have lost all documents of their place, property and life. They must have lost documents of their insurance agreements, deposits in bank. Tourists under agreement with tour operators have certain accident insurance covers. Motor vehicles , all have insurance covers for the vehicles and third party risk. Some bank or post office deposit accounts carry attached insurance claims.
Those travelling and having suffered losses during use of vehicle have a right to get compensated .
Several drivers, workers etc have a right under various Compensation Act.
Reconstruction of documents,
getting death certified,
getting relationship certified,
locating different enforceable insurance contracts,
getting them settled,
restore the properties left to the rightful owner,
bank deposits be restored to the rightful owner,
how to get rid of succession certificate problem,

Rights o those who paid well for their stay in hotels,
