Abstract
The early 21st century has been an era marked by concerns regarding environmental degradation, social inequality, rapid industrial and economic growth, and globalization. These issues manifest continuously in the real world, leading to the exploitation of ecosystems and biodiversity while diminishing the quality of life for various forms of life. In an interconnected world, the […]
Abstract
Dowry continues to remain a deeply rooted social evil in India despite being legally prohibited for decades. The Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961 was enacted to criminalize the giving, taking, and demanding of dowry, yet the practice continues in disguised forms such as shagun, wedding gifts, and family traditions. This article examines the historical transformation of […]
Abstract
Mental health has long been surrounded by stigma, discrimination, and inadequate legal protection in India. The development of mental health legislation reflects a gradual shift from a custodial and institutional approach towards one based on dignity, autonomy, rights, and humane treatment. This article examines the evolution of mental health laws in India, from the colonial-era […]
Abstract
The term ‘‘Public Interest Litigation’’ isn’t Indian in origin.

Abstract
The rapid growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has transformed modern marketing by enabling businesses to analyse consumer behaviour, personalise advertisements, predict customer preferences, and automate communication. However, the effectiveness of AI-based marketing depends not only on technological efficiency but also on the level of trust consumers place in AI-driven systems. This paper examines the psychology […]
Abstract
Copyright law is frequently spoken of in the same breath as “intellectual property,” yet the precise relationship between the two is often assumed rather than examined. This paper argues that copyright is best understood not as a synonym for intellectual property but as one constituent limb of a larger legal family that also includes patents, […]
Abstract
India’s IP statute books read like a well-drafted brief — patents, trademarks, copyrights, and geographical indications are all accounted for, and largely TRIPS-compliant. The trouble starts after the ink dries. A registered right in India is not the same as a protected one, and the distance between the two is measured in years, rupees, and […]
