What Is the Honorarium for DLSA Sheohar Para Legal Volunteer 2026?
The honorarium is Rs 750 (seven hundred fifty rupees) per day. This is not a monthly salary. It is paid only on the special days when:
- The Authority gives the volunteer a specific task
- The volunteer brings a person from the village to the DLSA or ADR Centre for legal help
- The volunteer takes an active part in legal awareness camps in their area
So think of this as service to your community with a small payment for working days, not as a job with a regular income. If that suits you, it is a respectable way to gain experience in the legal-aid field. You can also look at other law and judicial jobs if you want regular employment.
