Akanksha Rajawat

Lawyer

Land Rights and Criminal Justice

Akanksha provides pro bono legal representation to Sahariya community members in Sheopur. She works with paralegals to organise evidence, understand the facts of each matter and develop legal strategies before drafting petitions and engaging with courts, police and public institutions.

A law graduate of Jiwaji University, she has worked closely with tribal communities through Sehr in both Shivpuri and Sheopur. Her practice connects formal legal procedure with the documentation and relationships required to carry community concerns into institutional spaces.

Akanksha enjoys books, sightseeing, classic Hindi songs and the careful observation of crime stories. These interests sit naturally with the curiosity and attention to detail she brings to case preparation and to her work alongside colleagues and clients.
