1. RTE for All Gender : Basic Human Right

By- Muskan Banga

• Abstract - 

As India’s landmark Right to Education (RTE) Act, 2009 has completed its decadal anniversary and its implementation still continues to be a huge challenge as the country continues to grapple with the crunch of poor learning outcomes in schools. The central fact of our constitution is No discrimination on any ground. Promoting gender equity is essential to achieving basic development goals because India still goes through poor investment in female education relative to male education, but there is one more gender who is facing the same problem in dark. As we know that India's Supreme Court has recognized transgender people as a third gender and the right to education of transgender have been at the core of political debate throughout the most recent years. This unvoiced gender is deprived of primary education due to their inappropriate gender role so the author will also focus on the constitutional goals and safeguards to provide equality to all three genders.

By - Tusharika Singh Gaharvar

• Abstract - 

Feminism, the idea in social, economic, and political equality of the sexes. though for the most part originating within the West, feminism is manifested worldwide and is depicted by numerous establishments committed to activity on behalf of women’s rights and interests. Throughout most of Western history, ladies were confined to the domestic sphere, whereas public life was reserved for men.

3. Tort in Environment : A Choice or Necessity?

By - Sarika Agarwal

• Abstract

Over the years, the world has experienced several laws being passed to protect the environment. Each law passed comes with its own set of rules for safeguarding the environment against its misuse. However, despite having various Environmental laws, the Indian judiciary has applied the principles of torts in a variety of cases involving environmental damages and violating people’s right to a vigorous environment. The aim of this research paper, therefore, is to analyse the need for the application of torts’ principles such as Nuisance, Trespass, Strict Liability, Absolute Liability, and Negligence in India and its effectiveness in matters related to environmental harms and present landmark cases concerning the same. The paper also tries to draw a comparison between the effectiveness of the judgments given while relying exclusively on environmental laws with judgments given on the basis of tort law principles. Furthermore, the paper also presents recent cases on violation of environmental components in India and leaves it to the readers to decide if the present legislation regarding the protection of the environment is sufficient to provide complete justice to the victims of such accidents. In the end, the author also presents her own views regarding the prevailing laws of environmental protection and suggests some changes concerning the same.

4. Judicial Overreach : A Need ?

By - Muskaan Gupta & Harshul Bangia

• Abstract

The desirability of judicial overreach is a frequently debated topic ever since the Supreme Court of India assumed an activist role and started giving judgements against the executive and legislative actions or laws instead of being a submissive judiciary. By assuming such a role, the judiciary acquired a significant place in the Indian government system because it gave people hope of being able to improve the situation when the elected government became apathetic to the rights and liberties of people. The judiciary is criticized for overstepping its boundaries by interfering with the executive and legislative powers, thereby undermining them, which have their separate powers vested in them by the Constitution implicitly. Even though the Constitution does not give an apparent separation, and there is some overlap of powers of the three organs, the basic features of the organs are defined, and the overlap is minimal. The question of overstepping the separation of powers is vital because, on the one hand, such a system intends to avoid concentration of too much power into one organ, which, if it happens, would lead to exploitation of the powers, and on the other, overstepping powers might seem to be the only resort especially when immediate action is required like in the cases related to the environment.

5. An Analysis of The Privacy Judgement

By - Neeraja Ashok Paranjape

• Introduction

In Justice K.S. Puttuswamy v Union of India, a nine-judge panel of the Supreme Court, issued a landmark decision establishing the fundamental right to privacy. It defined privacy as an intrinsic part of Part III of the Indian Constitution, which lays out our fundamental rights, including everything from the right to life to the right to privacy. Articles 14 to 18 deal with equality; Article 19(1)(a) deals with freedom of speech and expression; Article 20 deals with freedom of movement. (Article 19(1)(d); life and personal liberty protection (Article 21); and others. These fundamental rights are inalienable. According to the Supreme Court, like most other fundamental rights, the right to privacy is not an “absolute right”. A person’s privacy interests can be trumped by conflicting governmental and individual interests if specific standards and benchmarks are met. This paper examines the standards established by the Supreme Court in the Puttuswamy case, which will be used to evaluate potential privacy violations.

9. Cyber Crime Against Children : Indian and International Perspective

By- Parth Raman

• Abstract

An offence against such a baby isn't just a crime against even a person, but even against society as a whole. People are more susceptible to cyberterrorism throughout today's political climate, but it is essential for the Government to secure the lives and freedoms of its young people and the oppressed and poorer parts. Yet the county's proven uselessness in curbing cyber threats toward minors destroys interest in the separation of powers across the world. And during trial and eventual sentencing, the abuse and cruelty towards the children in India lets the criminals circumvent criminal law requirements. Growing rates of conviction of cyber horrible crimes suggest that legal reactions to young offenders are not compassionate. The most vital commodity of any country is an infant. They are really a key component of a country's stability.

10. Humankind Against Reservation

By - Deep Kathin

• Abstract

Reservation is a debatable and highly controversial subject matter in a country like India. Furthermore, the main purpose behind the reservation was the authorization of the weaker divisions of civilization.

Unfortunately, there has been the failure of the policy to accomplish its purpose to elevate the downgraded classes. Moderately, the reservation policy has become a radical instrument in the hands of politicians. Originally, the impressionwas to make a reservation policy only up to ten years subsequently the independence to accelerate the development of the underprivileged divisions. However, the condition now is such that even after more than seventy years of independence, reservation policy is still in perception.

The law grants the right of information and intellectual products to persons and enterprises, generally for a fixed period.

14. THE QUEST FOR CIVIL RIGHTS : THE ABOLITION OF SLAVERY IN THE USA & ABOLITION OF UNTOUCHABILITY IN INDIA
By-Bhavya Goswami

• Abstract

Civil rights are the essential legal rights that a person is entitled to in order to be considered an equal citizen in a liberal democratic society. They are not inherent and must be granted and protected by state power. As a result, they differ widely throughout time, culture, and governmental system, and they tend to follow cultural trends that condone or condemn certain forms of discrimination. Throughout the history of world government, we have witnessed some historical movements aimed at securing such rights for humans. The Civil Rights Movement 1865-1896 is an appropriate example, which first resulted in the Emancipation Proclamation 1863 and finally, in the Thirteenth Amendment 1865. Similarly, in India Article 17 of the Indian Constitution acts as a gateway to liberation of millions of lives from the ancient and barbarous practice of untouchability.

By- Roudro Mukhopadhyay
 
• Abstract
The fight of life was going super smooth until this pandemic was announced by the World Health Organisation in March 2020. The sudden and unreported outbreak of COVID-19 virus in the Wuhan Province soon from gaining a cross-border character turned into a global public health emergency. During the initial period of this pandemic, no one would have thought that it will last for so long. Soon this pandemic apart from its health and emotional impacts started producing its adverse financial impacts on the daily lives of people. The functioning of all the multi-national companies was stalled, local shops and malls were shut down, employees lost their regular jobs, labourer lost their jobs and most aggressively it affected the contractual relationships between many parties as well as governments of different nations. Even the governments started taking the defence of this pandemic to defend their failure to discharge their promises.
