Abstract
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reworking numerous sectors in India, including healthcare, schooling, finance, governance and the prison career. Despite its potential to enhance efficiency, innovation and selection-making, the speedy development of AI has raised giant legal challenges concerning information privacy, highbrow assets rights, algorithmic bias, deepfakes, responsibility and the protection of essential rights. The absence […]
Abstract
Modern law enforcement is shifting from reactive tracking to pre-emptive surveillance through Predictive Policing and Facial Recognition Technology (FRT). This paper explores the deep operational, ethical, and legal challenges these technologies pose within the Indian digital landscape. While promoted as tools for efficiency, their actual deployment—such as during the 2020 Delhi riots—reveals severe threats to […]

The intersection of modern neuro-science and criminal justice often creates a profound conflict between technological efficiency and basic constitutional rights.

Abstract
The rapid explosion of digital entertainment has introduced a silent yet highly predatory phenomenon: short-form vertical drama applications (Duanju). Characterized by a 9:16 portrait layout, high-intensity cliffhangers, and ultra-short episodes, these platforms successfully bypass traditional regulatory guardrails. This paper exposes the dual-layered subterfuge engineered by these applications to exploit structural blind spots in automated content […]

Abstract
In India, the registration of a marriage often unknowingly dictates property inheritance laws, creating an unannounced legal trap for couples. Under the Special Marriage Act (SMA), Sections 19 and 21 automatically shift succession from personal laws to the Indian Succession Act (ISA) and trigger a severance of status in Hindu Undivided Families, while Section 21A […]
Abstract
This blog critically examines the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023 (BSA), arguing that despite its promised goal of delivering a modern, decolonized evidentiary framework to replace the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 (IEA), it amounts to superficial rebranding rather than substantive reform. The author demonstrates that the BSA preserves the core structural features of the IEA-such as […]
