The present paper aims to reflect on the interventional research that is required in the field of legal advocacy for inclusion of all the genders in the policies and broader development plans through legal advocacy being the core of social transformation. The present paper highlights that the gender based archetypes and prejudices are leading towards the digital world which is becoming much more exclusive in its existence. Due to this, the groups which have been marginalized on the basis of gender have been excluded from its democratic rights. The question of representation and participation are the elements of enquiry in the present paper. Based on the qualitative data collected from civil society, voluntary sector, legal forces and social work professionals, this research concludes that in the contemporary age of digital lives of divide we need to re-define and re-engage with the ethics of legal advocacy when it comes to gender equality and equity.
