Abstract: The present invention discloses an artificial intelligence based system for legal literacy and legal knowledge mapping. The system comprises an input acquisition module, a legal knowledge ingestion module, a legal knowledge graph module, an artificial intelligence reasoning module, a literacy adaptation engine, a verification module, and an output generation module. The system receives a user legal query through text, speech, scanned document, form, image, or selected topic input and converts the query into a normalized machine-readable representation. Legal-domain data from verified legal sources is segmented into provision units, procedure units, remedy units, document units, authority units, timeline units, and risk units and is represented in a structured legal knowledge graph. The artificial intelligence reasoning module maps the user query to relevant graph paths and generates a source-grounded legal literacy response. The literacy adaptation engine converts complex legal information into user-specific simplified output, while the verification module performs source anchoring, jurisdiction validation, contradiction detection, confidence scoring, and human review triggering. The invention improves legal awareness by generating structured, multilingual, and legally controlled knowledge maps and literacy outputs. Accompanied Drawing [FIGS. 1-2]
