17. Lakshadweep Legal Services Authority has been constituted under the Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987, but it lacks dedicated infrastructural facilities. The State and District Legal Services Authorities currently operate from the District Court, Kavaratti, and the Taluk Legal Services Committees function from the Sub Court and Munsiff Court. This arrangement is inadequate. Adequate infrastructure should be provided to ensure the smooth functioning of legal services institutions. Six computers and multi-function printers are required, with an estimated expense of ₹4,91,934/-. While the National Legal Services Authority (NALSA) has provided ₹2,00,000/-, the UT Administration will have to fund the remaining amount to enhance operational efficiency.
