Knowledge of Law of the one‟s own land is one of the most effective vehicles of development of its country. Ignorance of law of the land is no excuse. Ignorance of law can be wiped out only by spreading legal awareness amongst the people. A Legal literate person knows his rights, duties and privileges. He knows what he should do or what he should not do in his day to day life. A legal literate person can fight for the injustice in the society. It is the knowledge of law which resole the grievances of a person. It is also helpful in effective administration of justice. Many times ignorance of law becomes a main cause of instituting cases.

For the success, peace, development and effective administration of justice in a society, legal literacy is mandatory. For spreading legal awareness amongst the people, legal fraternity can play an effective role. It can be used as a default missile.
