BLOG SYMPOSIUM 1.0 THEME

BUILDING A HEALTHY MECHANISM FOR COUNTERING LAW AND ORDER PROBLEMS IN INDIA

Sub-themes

  • Employing Section 144 of CrPC rationally
  • Exploring Viable Solutions to Curb Police Brutality and Custodial Violence
  • Internet Shutdowns
  • Countering the Rise of Encounter Killings
  • Post-NRC Setup: Reforming the Foreigners Tribunal, Detention Centers and Related Problems

Submission Guidelines

  • Submissions must adhere to our standard guidelines which can be accessed here.
  • Submissions will be judged on the following criteria: Originality of the idea, contribution towards to the literature on the issue, and the language employed. We prefer to publish under-covered or novel perspectives to the issue.
  • Since our blog posts are typically under 1500 words, authors are encouraged to write on a specific aspect of the sub-theme as opposed to a comprehensive approach.
  • For instance, a post exclusively analysing the right to the internet in the context of India’s international obligations will be
    preferred over a post summarising the problem of internet shutdowns in India.
  • The above-mentioned sub-themes are indicative in nature and authors at liberty to write on any other issue that relates to the current ‘law and order’ problems in India.
  • Deadline for sending entries for the Symposium is March 15, 2020.

Note: Although this call is exclusively for the symposium articles, our regular submissions on rolling basis remain open.
