An Initiative of Agrovet Research & Development Foundation (ARDF)
India’s Unified Platform for Animal Aid, Welfare & Legal Justice
“Empowering Compassion with Legal Protection & Justice for Every Animal”
About NAALSN:
The National Animal Aid & Legal Services Network (NAALSN) is a pioneering pan-India initiative established under the aegis of the Agrovet Research & Development Foundation (ARDF). It is envisioned as a unified national platform dedicated to strengthening animal welfare through legal support, advocacy, and collaborative networking.
NAALSN aims to bridge the critical gap between animal welfare practices and legal frameworks by bringing together professionals, organisations, and grassroots stakeholders who are committed to protecting animal rights and ensuring justice.
Our Vision:
To create a compassionate and legally empowered ecosystem where every animal receives protection, care, and justice through a strong national network of professionals and stakeholders.
Our Mission:
– To establish a nationwide network of animal welfare professionals, legal experts, and volunteers
– To provide legal aid, guidance, and consultancy in matters related to animal welfare and protection laws
– To promote awareness and advocacy on animal rights and legal provisions across India
– To support grassroots animal caregivers through structured coordination and legal backing
– To strengthen the implementation of existing animal welfare laws and policies

Why NAALSN Matters:
Despite the presence of laws for animal protection in India, their implementation often faces challenges due to lack of awareness, coordination, and legal support. NAALSN addresses this gap by creating a structured, professional, and collaborative ecosystem where:
– Animal welfare efforts are supported by legal strength
– Field-level workers receive institutional backing
– Cases of cruelty are addressed with timely and effective legal action
– A unified national voice advocates for stronger enforcement and policy reforms
Our Approach:
NAALSN operates through a multi-dimensional approach:
– Networking: Building connections across states and sectors
– Legal Integration: Linking animal welfare with legal expertise
– Community Engagement: Empowering grassroots stakeholders
– Digital Platform: Facilitating communication, reporting, and coordination
– Collaboration: Partnering with government bodies, institutions, and organisations
