Abstract

This abstract explores the frequently disregarded problem of gender discrimination against males in India and the US, focusing on its reflections in employment opportunities, education, legal systems, violence including domestic abuse and sexual assault, LGBTQ+ rights as well as health. Instead of concentrating mostly on women’s gender inequality, this examination brings out specific problems experienced by men in both countries Men suffer widespread discrimination across various sectors in India. Having a large fraction of the labor force they contend with job insecurity, low wages and fewer career prospects than their female counterparts do in some areas. There are educational inequalities such that men from marginalized communities face barriers to entry and graduation. The justice system is advancing but still contains biases that disfavor men under certain circumstances. Men too are victims of violence such domestic violence and sexual harassment although these are often unreported and stigmatized. In relation to this issue, LGBTQ+ community also experiences high degrees of discrimination with men being constantly harassed, subjected to violent acts or shunned socially. Health disparities affect males particularly when it comes to mental issues and drugs abuse which have long been ignored. It’s a contrasting and complicated picture in the United Kingdom. Gender equality has made some strides; however, males face certain difficulties. Within the workforce, men dominate hazardous occupations and are more likely to become unemployed. There are gender disparities in education, with men trailing women in several areas. The legal system is typically fair but there could be concerns where men’s rights may be sidelined. Men experience violence including domestic abuse yet support services often target women. LGBTQ+ communities suffer discrimination and this presents challenges that are particular to males. There are health inequalities that affect men such as suicide and substance abuse. From a comparative analysis, it can be observed that despite some similarities, there exist striking differences between experiences of men in India and those of their counterparts in the US. It is true that both countries have systemic biases as well as discriminatory practices which impact on men’s lives. However, the nature, extent, and response by society to these issues significantly differ between them. India faces deeply entrenched patriarchal structures coupled with low awareness about issues affecting men while Britain grapples with how not to homogenize specific needs for men without perpetuating harmful stereotypes amongst its citizens who have embraced gender neutrality.

THE ROLE OF ADMINISTRATIVE LAW: GOVERNMENT SURVEILLANCE AND DATA PRIVACY

AUTHOR – D.NIROSHA, STUDENT AT THE TAMIL NADU DR. AMBEDKAR LAW UNIVERSITY, SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE IN LAW.

BEST CITATION – D.NIROSHA, THE ROLE OF ADMINISTRATIVE LAW: GOVERNMENT SURVEILLANCE AND DATA PRIVACY, INDIAN JOURNAL OF LEGAL REVIEW (IJLR), 4 (3) OF 2024, PG. 712-717, APIS – 3920 – 0001 & ISSN – 2583-2344.

Abstract:

This topic delves into the complex interplay between government surveillance and data privacy, focusing on the role of Administrative Law in managing these often conflicting interests. With governments increasingly relying on surveillance to ensure national security and public safety, there is growing concern about the impact on individual privacy rights. This concern is particularly acute in the digital age, where the scope and scale of data collection have expanded dramatically. The discussion explores how administrative law provides a legal framework to regulate surveillance activities, ensuring that they are conducted within legal boundaries while respecting fundamental privacy rights.

The study examines global data privacy frameworks, specifically the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and India’s Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 (DPDPA), to highlight the challenges of balancing state interests with personal data protection. By comparing these frameworks, the research identifies commonalities and differences in how different jurisdictions address surveillance and privacy. Landmark cases, such as India’s Aadhaar identity system, are analyzed to illustrate the practical tensions between state surveillance powers and individual privacy rights.

The paper argues that administrative law must evolve to address these challenges effectively. It should ensure greater transparency, accountability, and proportionality in government surveillance activities. Additionally, administrative law must adapt to global privacy developments to protect individuals’ rights while enabling governments to fulfill their essential security functions. By analyzing how various legal systems handle these issues, the study aims to provide insights into the future direction of administrative law in the context of digital surveillance and data privacy.

BEST CITATION – GREESHMA D, ROLE OF PHYSIOTHERAPISTS AND LEGAL CONSIDEREATIONS IN DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASES,  INDIAN JOURNAL OF LEGAL REVIEW (IJLR), 4 (3) OF 2024, PG. 691-696, APIS – 3920 – 0001 & ISSN – 2583-2344.

Abstract:

Domestic violence is a widespread issue affecting individuals across various demographics, leading to significant physical and emotional trauma. As frontline healthcare providers, physiotherapists often encounter patients who may be survivors of domestic violence. This underscores the importance of recognizing signs of physical abuse and understanding the legal responsibilities that accompany these cases.

Physiotherapists may have mandatory reporting requirements, particularly when they suspect abuse or violence. These legal obligations vary by jurisdiction but generally require healthcare providers to report suspected cases of domestic violence to appropriate authorities to ensure the safety of the victim. Alongside these legal responsibilities, ethical considerations play a crucial role in addressing domestic violence. Physiotherapists must navigate the delicate balance of patient confidentiality and the need to report suspected abuse, always prioritizing the well-being of the patient. Recognizing red flags and being vigilant and educated on these indicators, they can initiate conversations with patients in a supportive manner, providing them with the opportunity to disclose their experiences if they choose to do so. Ultimately, by understanding the medical, ethical, and legal implications of domestic violence, physiotherapists can contribute significantly to the protection and support of survivors, fostering an environment where individuals feel safe to seek help and receive the care they need.

ABSTRACT

The United Nations has been inextricably linked with organizational efforts not only to promote human rights but also to play a vital role in the development of human rights protection mechanisms. Human rights concepts and mechanisms have developed historically in conjunction with interventions by civil society and states. The right to self-determination serves as one of the most salient examples. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights has been associated with the rise of pro-democracy and pro-human rights movements around the world, establishing the foundation for the development of international human rights mechanisms over the past five decades. This study aims to identify the role of the United Nations in protecting human rights and the challenges in the protection and promotion of human rights.

“ROLE OF EXECUTIVE IN APPOINTMENT OF JUDGES – WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO NATIONAL JUDICIAL APPOINTMENT COMMISSION (NJAC) OF INDIA”

AUTHOR – MADHAN S, STUDENT AT SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE IN LAW, CHENNAI

BEST CITATION – MADHAN S, “ROLE OF EXECUTIVE IN APPOINTMENT OF JUDGES – WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO NATIONAL JUDICIAL APPOINTMENT COMMISSION (NJAC) OF INDIA”,  INDIAN JOURNAL OF LEGAL REVIEW (IJLR), 4 (3) OF 2024, PG. 678-683, APIS – 3920 – 0001 & ISSN – 2583-2344.

ABSTRACT

The Constitution (Ninety-ninth Amendment) Act of 2014 established the National Judicial Appointments Commission (NJAC) with the goal of increasing openness and accountability in India’s judicial appointment process. However, its implementation has encountered considerable challenges that have hampered its efficacy. One of the main difficulties is the constitutional challenge that prompted the Supreme Court to overturn the NJAC in 2015, citing concerns about judicial independence and the possibility of political intervention in judge nominations. This verdict has kept the present collegium system in place, which, while criticized for its lack of openness, continues to operate in the absence of a strong alternative structure. Concerns over the perceived elitism and opacity of the judicial establishment are also raised by the lack of a clear framework for public participation and accountability in the selection process. In addition, there have been concerns raised about the NJAC’s original design, which comprised members from the executive and judicial branches, thereby weakening the separation of powers and causing judicial selections to become politicized.

This paper emphasizes the complex issues that the NJAC must deal with, highlighting the necessity for a well-rounded strategy that protects judicial independence while fostering accountability and openness. It is imperative that these shortcomings be addressed in order to promote public confidence in the court and guarantee that the selection procedure adheres to the democratic values of justice and equity in India.
