Abstract

The piece also examines persistent […]
Abstract
Out of nowhere, how people manage job and home life started shaping their overall health. When work spills into evenings or weekends, things get messy fast. A look at factory workers in Kerala shows clear links between time control and feeling good. Instead of just surviving, many reported sleeping better, worrying less, showing up more […]
Abstract
Abstract Openness in leadership builds strong organizations because it links trust with responsibility. What happens when leaders explain choices clearly? People on teams notice – they feel included, respected, stronger in what they do.

Abstract
India’s criminal justice architecture – built on the British-era Indian Penal Code (IPC) of 1860, the 1973 Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC), and the 1872 Evidence Act – underwent its most radical overhaul since independence in July 2024.

Abstract

Directive Principles […]
Abstract
India’s progress toward the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) shows notable improvements in social and infrastructure areas, but it faces significant regional differences and conflicts with environmental goals. National indicators reveal gains in poverty reduction, sanitation, access to education, and clean energy. However, these improvements are uneven; top-performing states like Kerala far exceed lagging […]
Abstract
India has seen rapid growth in artificial intelligence (AI) in both public and private sectors, but the legal system has not kept up. Currently, India uses a mix of laws and policies to handle AI-related risks. For instance, the Information Technology Act 2000 and the Indian Penal Code address cybercrimes, deepfakes, and AI-driven fraud, while […]

The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code, 2016 (IBC) basically turned into a big reform for India’s insolvency system. It tried to bring in a single, time-bound way to sort out corporate insolvency, and also to keep asset value from getting eroded.
