The aim of the Criminal Justice System is to punish the guilty and protect the innocent. Although the broad contours of the Criminal justice system are seldom codified, these can be inferred from different statutes, including the Constitution and judicial pronouncements.

The declaration in the f

In this paper the banking sector changes in India with a focus on the reduction of NPAs were investigated, adjustments of the level of capital, and regulatory fines to banks. The study narrows down on changes from 1991 to 2023 and then examines them both from a legal and financial aspect and investigates how changes have influenced the financial stability using both quantitative and qualitative analysis. Results indicate that after reforms, capital adequacy improved, risk management framework became stronger and NPAs went down. However, regulatory fines and compliance breaches increased, indicating that although banking operations have been boosted by advances, a governorship and legal problem have not been solved. The report mentions that to successfully face the legal issue, AI-driven compliance tools, stronger enforcement measures, and more regulatory monitoring are needed. Moreover, this study contributes to the growing literature of financial sector laws by providing policy suggestions to reorient the legal risk governance through remedial use of legal means to bring the banking system across India into compliance with international norms. Future studies must investigate the cross-border legal risk-reducing techniques in accordance with the worldwide regulatory comparisons to construct a stronger financial ecosystem.

The value of any freedom is determined by the extent to which the citizens are able to enjoy such freedom. Ours is a constitutional democracy and it is axiomatic that citizens have the right to know about the affairs of the Government which, having been elected by them, seeks to formulate some policies of governance aimed at their welfare. However, like any other freedom, this freedom also has limitations. It is a settled proposition that the Right to Freedom of Speech and Expression enshrined under Article 19(1)(a) of the Constitution of India encompasses the right to impart and receive information. The Right to Information has been stated to be one of the important facets of proper governance. With the passage of time, this concept has not only developed in the field of law, but also has attained new dimensions in its application. The Indian courts have highlighted the need for the society and its entitlement to know and have observed that public interest is better served by effectiv

The capital punishment can be characterized as 'the reparative action to execute the apparently awful methods of acting', in which the following life is carried out by the state. It is the most insane type of punishment given to any broad masses to protect law and order and relies on the idea that punishing offenders will actually deter others from committing similar violations. It yields to violations that are negative for humanity. The capital punishment is the most interesting recuperation pr

Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, the performance of economic indicators has been regarded as the primary criterion for determining whether or not progress has been made.

While there is much for MSMEs to benefit from in Industry 4.0, there are many legal complications when it comes to cybersecurity vulnerabilities, IP theft, and contractual compliance. This research takes a quantitative and qualitative approach to the legal risk Indian MSMEs face when adopting Industry 4.0. The analysis suggests that as digital technology grows, so do legal risks and cybersecurity breaches, which increased by 100 percent between 2021 and 2023. A correlation study (r = 0.897, p < 0.05) shows that increased exposure to legal risk substantially correlated with more Industry 4.0 adoption rates. Additionally, regression models confirm that technological use (β = 0.724, p = 0.002) is the best indicator of legal risk. The report also makes recommendations for governmental interventions to ease legal risk for MSMEs, like financial assistance programs, cybersecurity improvements, regulatory simplification, and AI in legal analytics. The findings add to MSME research on legal risk governance and contribute to the practical suggestions for the long-term adoption of Industry 4.0.

Legal risk management in banking governance is a relatively understudied issue related to scheduled commercial banks in India. This research examines two aspects regarding legal risk events, financial provisions, contingent liabilities, and compliance audits, especially in the frame of banking operating in the years 2018–2022. Using regression models, descriptive statistics, and correlation analysis in this research proves that legal risks have a positive association with financial provisioning; hence, these are riskier such that capital reserves will in fact be more. It also became clear that a need for appropriate regulatory control is in great demand in reducing legal risks, and it is found that compliance checks do a great amount. MUCHIT identifies many things in the report, such as shifting litigation patterns, compliance problems caused by urbanization, spotty regulations, etc. It does this to damp down on legal uncertainty by offering governance frameworks based on Basel III aligned, compliance processes powered by AI, and risk assessment based on data. But then there should be future studies on cross-border legal risk management methods to assimilate a common legal risk framework for Indian scheduled commercial banks. Finally, this study highlights the significance of proactive legal risk reduction techniques to ensure banking facilities and banks’ financial stability and their regulatory compliance, and in this way, to help banking professionals, banks, and banks’ regulators to have some insights.

Women's right to maintenance refers to the legal obligation of a spouse, typically the husband, to financially support their wife after separation, divorce, or in cases where the wife is unable to maintain herself. Maintenance laws are grounded in the principle of social justice and the recognition that marriage creates financial interdependence between spouses. In the context of marital relationships, maintenance serves as a mechanism to ensure that women, particularly in patriarchal societies, are not left destitute after the dissolution of marriage or during periods of marital discord. These rights encompass not just the financial support during marriage but also after divorce or separation, recognizing the woman’s contribution to the family and her potential economic vulnerability. In India, these rights are governed by various legal provisions, including the Hindu Marriage Act, the Muslim Women (Protection of Rights on Divorce) Act, and Section 125 of the Criminal Procedure Code. Maintenance is thus an essential aspect of family law, aiming to ensure financial fairness and gender equality.

Education is crucial to social welfare and equality in any society. Article 21A of the Indian Constitution guarantees free and compulsory education for children aged 6–14. The Right to Education (RTE) Act of 2009 supports this clause, which creates an inclusive educational framework to reduce inequality and empower marginalized groups. Judicial and policy changes have shaped the right to education. This right's importance for human growth and social justice was highlighted in landmark instances like Unnikrishnan v. State of Andhra Pradesh. Despite these guarantees, major issues remain. In rural and poor areas, finance, infrastructure, teacher shortages, and socio-cultural impediments hamper implementation. Investment in education, effective monitoring, teacher training, and awareness initiatives to lower dropout rates are needed to close these inequalities. India can ensure that the right to education meets its constitutional promise and promotes equitable growth and social change by upgrading the system.

As a result of internal and worldwide political, social, and economic revolutions, the banking sector in India is seeing enormous changes. In the last twenty years, India's banking sector has experienced profound transformation. These days, banking is just too competitive and open. Everything has shifted from a modest corporate level of emphasis and direction to a maximum feasible limit. Business transactions used to go from the customer's doorstep to the banker's, but now it goes the other way around. In this context, it is crucial to research employee engagement and human resource management methods in order to develop good policies for the future. Thus, the study's primary objective is to address the following research questions: Is there a correlation between HRM practices and employee engagement in the banking industry in India? Therefore, the purpose of this research is to examine the socioeconomic effects of human resource management strategies and employee engagement in the banking sector of India in the study region.

This thesis explores the intersection of gender, crime, and justice within the context of India, employing a feminist legal perspective to critically analyze the systemic inequalities that women face in the criminal justice system. Through a feminist lens, this study investigates how the law, legal institutions, and societal norms often perpetuate gendered injustice, especially in the context of crimes against women such as domestic violence, sexual harassment, trafficking, and dowry deaths. Despite the existence of legal frameworks aimed at protecting women’s rights, the implementation of these laws is frequently marred by patriarchal biases, cultural prejudices, and institutional neglect. The research delves into the socio-legal landscape of India, highlighting the ways in which gender-based violence is normalized and underreported, and how women’s experiences with crime and justice are shaped by intersecting factors such as caste, class, and religion. Drawing on feminist legal theory, the thesis critiques the prevailing legal practices and offers a comprehensive analysis of the gaps between law and justice, illustrating how traditional legal structures fail to adequately protect women. In addition, the study emphasizes the role of feminist movements and grassroots activism in advocating for legal reforms, addressing both the successes and challenges faced by these efforts. The paper concludes by proposing a feminist, intersectional approach to legal reform that prioritizes gender-sensitive policies, victim-centered practices, and a broader societal transformation towards justice for all women. This research contributes to the ongoing discourse on women’s rights and justice, providing insights into how feminist legal theory can guide the creation of a more equitable and responsive legal system in India.

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is of paramount importance in Industry 4.0 since Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises (MSMEs) depend on this tool to simplify their operations, make better decisions, and gain a competitive advantage. This research uses statistical modeling, regression analysis, and correlation analysis to identify the trends, difficulties, and advantages of ERP implementation in Indian MSMEs from 2020 to 2023. According to the findings, ERP adoption grew almost threefold from 25 percent to 55 percent in 2023, and the greatest (40 percent) increase (2021) was due to the pandemic’s digital transformation, which led to higher adoption of ERP. The correlation study states that ERP installation has a good influence on supply chain management (r = 0.987), cost reduction (r = 0.975), and operational efficiency (r = 0.989). Through the process of hypothesis testing (p = 0.047), it is confirmed that after 2022, the substantial shift in ERP adoption trends takes place. While there are still some issues, and one of them is the high implementation cost, the shortage of skilled people, and integration issues. According to multiple regression analysis (R² = 0.967), the two biggest factors for the success of ERP implementation are the workforce skills and the budgetary limitations. To speed up adoption of MSMEs, it recommends cloud-based solutions, as well as cybersecurity and government ERP infrastructure to aid the government, SMEs, and MSMEs. The findings make contributions to the growing body of research on ERP tactics for deployment in MSMEs in Industry 4.0.
