BEST CITATION – SHRINITHI KRISHNAN.R, AN ANALYSIS OF EQUAL RIGHTS AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR PRIESTS IN RELATION TO CASTE SYSTEM IN ADMINISTRATIVE LAW, INDIAN JOURNAL OF LEGAL REVIEW (IJLR), 4 (3) OF 2024, PG. 637-642, APIS – 3920 – 0001 & ISSN – 2583-2344.

ABSTRACT:

                    The caste system[1] has long restricted access to the priesthood in India, perpetuating social and economic inequalities. Despite constitutional provisions and legislative efforts, caste-based discrimination persists in priestly appointments and training institutions, denying individuals from marginalized communities their rightful place in spiritual leadership. This article examines the complex relationship between the caste system and equal rights and opportunities for priests, highlighting the need for comprehensive reform and inclusivity. It argues that administrative law must be reformed to ensure equal opportunities for individuals from all castes to become priests, and recommends measures such as caste-neutral selection criteria, inclusive training institutions, and representation of lower-caste individuals in decision-making bodies. The article also analyzes judicial precedents [2]and case studies, emphasizing the importance of a caste-neutral approach in promoting social justice and inclusivity in the priesthood. Furthermore, it explores the intersectionality of caste with other social identities and its implications for creating a more just and equitable society. Ultimately, it calls for a comprehensive and inclusive movement to abolish caste-based discrimination and create a more harmonious and egalitarian society, where every individual can thrive and reach their full potential.

Introduction

AI involves the creation and use of computer programs that can perform tasks typically requiring human intelligence. Currently, AI systems are capable of replicating or surpassing certain human cognitive functions, but they are far from achieving full human-level intelligence. While some researchers are striving to develop AI that can match or even exceed human cognitive abilities, often referred to as “general intelligence” or “superintelligence,” this remains decades away. As a result, key legal skills based on human judgment, intuition, common sense, interpersonal interactions, and experience will continue to be indispensable for lawyers for the foreseeable future.

ABSTRACT

This research critically examines the Role of Artificial Intelligence in enhancing the Justice Delivery System in India. Artificial intelligence (AI), is an ancient concept based on the assumption that human thought and reasoning can be mechanized. (AI) has been popularized among the people because of its problem-solving nature in the real world. Various measures, such as pushing for ADR mechanisms and eliminating unnecessary laws, are being taken to address this issue, but it is still unclear how to best use the recently discovered field of artificial intelligence to solve this puzzle. Using artificial intelligence to decide legal cases can bring back the efficacy and efficiency of the justice delivery system and ensure its sustainability. Since the courts of India are already undergoing a radical transition as a result of turning digital, the newly emerging field of study known as “Artificial Intelligence,” or “AI,” may be able to provide long-term justice delivery and lessen the backlog of unresolved cases in unexpected ways. Using AI to make decisions in court is an effective way in the reduction of backlog of cases in India guaranteeing quick and long-lasting justice delivery systems globally. The conclusion presents the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and technology in addressing the complexities and enhancing the Justice Delivery in India.

ABSTRACT:

The Jadhav Case (India v. Pakistan) revolved around Pakistan’s arrest, detention, conviction, and death sentence of Kulbhushan Sudhir Jadhav, who India claimed as an Indian national. Jadhav was convicted by Pakistan for terrorism and espionage. This case marked the third time the International Court of Justice (ICJ) addressed the interpretation of Article 36 of the Vienna Convention on Consular Relations (VCCR). Unlike previous cases concerning consular rights, India sought more extensive relief, including the annulment of Jadhav’s conviction, his release from detention, and his safe return to India. The ICJ, with only Judge ad hoc Jillani dissenting, unanimously confirmed its jurisdiction and found that Pakistan had violated VCCR Article 36. Specifically, Pakistan had failed to inform Jadhav promptly of his consular rights, did not notify the Indian consular post in Pakistan of his detention, and denied India the right to communicate with Jadhav, visit him, and arrange for his legal representation. The Court ruled that Pakistan must immediately inform Jadhav of his rights and allow Indian consular officers access to him. The Court also determined that Pakistan must provide a means for effective review and reconsideration of Jadhav’s conviction and sentence to address the rights violation. Finally, the ICJ, with Judge ad hoc Jillani dissenting, stated that a continued stay of execution was essential for ensuring an effective review and reconsideration of Jadhav’s conviction and sentence.

Abstract

Legal Odyssey of Cross-Border M&A: Global Divergence and Corporate Convergence. The liberalization of global trade and investments in the late 20th century marked a turning point, leading to an upsurge in cross-border M&A activity. Historic transactions such as Vodafone’s acquisition of Mannesmann in 2000 exemplify milestones in this journey. In the contemporary era, cross-border M&A remains a dominant force, characterized by an increasing complexity in deal structures. The post-pandemic landscape has added a layer of adaptation as businesses address issues like supply chain disruptions and remote workforces. This research dissects the multifaceted legal complexities that envelop cross-border M&A. It surveys historical developments, evaluates the current landscape, and anticipates evolving trends. There is a necessity to unravel the intricate legal challenges faced by corporations engaged in cross-border M&A transactions. This research aims to comprehensively explore these challenges, offer insights into legal strategies for success, and spotlight the growing relevance of cross-border M&A in the global business arena. To address the legal complexities entwined with cross-border M&A, this research adopts a comprehensive approach. It encompasses a thorough examination of international and national legal frameworks, scrutiny of due diligence processes, and a deep dive into best practices. In the current scenario is the establishment of a standardized international regulatory framework for cross-border M&A. This framework could streamline and harmonize legal requirements, making it easier for corporations to navigate the complexities of cross-border transactions while promoting fairness and transparency in the global marketplace. This research serves as a holistic investigation into the legal intricacies of cross-border M&A, offering a roadmap for corporations to deftly navigate the challenges and attain success in their global expansion endeavours.
