Role of Virtual Court in Reducing Pendency of Cases in India: A Way Forward
No full textThe judicial backlog is becoming increasingly problematic for the effectiveness and efficiency of India\u27s legal system. A workable solution to this issue is the creation of virtual courts. This study looks into ways to lower India\u27s case backlog through virtual courts. It also examines ways to make court processes more efficient, raise accessibility, and enhance case management generally. Technology is used by virtual courts to hold hearings and proceedings online, which can reduce logistical and physical obstacles to justice. They lessen the delays connected with traditional court settings and enable quicker case settlement by enabling real-time communication and documentation. In addition to relieving the burden on the actual court infrastructure, this move offers a more adaptable and user-friendly platform for all parties concerned. The research delves into several aspects of virtual courts, including their operation, impact on case resolution rates, and challenges encountered in implementation. It assesses case studies and statistical data to show how virtual courts have contributed to a decrease in pendency. Additionally, it offers best practices for implementing them effectively. The research paper also includes the legal and technological frameworks needed to support virtual courts, as well as elements related to equitable access and maintaining procedural integrity
Yam-Niyam ke Adhunik Jeevan Par Padne wale Prabhav ki Sameeksha: A Review of the Impact of Yama and Niyama on Modern Life
No full textThe practice of Yama and Niyama in modern life has a profound impact on an individual\u27s psychological functioning and leads to improvements in mental well-being. The tendency toward indulgence is naturally found in humans and is also essential for survival. However, if we lack a sense of contentment, we cannot find happiness even after acquiring more than enough. In reality, the way to attain true happiness is to reduce our needs and find satisfaction within them. The practice of Yama and Niyama has a positive effect on stress, anxiety, and depression arising from mental health disturbances. By practicing these principles, subtle refinement of the senses, mind, and body takes place, mental disorders are alleviated, and mental stability is achieved.
Our sages have given us Yama and Niyama as two fundamental components of Ashtanga Yoga. Imbalance or improper adherence to these principles leads to mental and physical disorders. Modern science also acknowledges that most diseases originate from the mind and manifest in the body; these are known as psychosomatic diseases. The practice of Yama and Niyama has a profound influence on our life and health
Asceticism – Transformation of Human Consciousness: In the context of Mahavir Swami
No full textMahavir Swami has presented a scientific approach to penance. According to him, penance is a process of transformation of human life energy. The circle of energy, the aura that surrounds this body, inside and outside our body, is our real body; And that is also our asceticism. When a person dies, the aura of his body begins to weaken. Regarding penance, Mahavira says: Sachāmmī vasādi tavo, sācchammi sanjmo tahā vāse tesa vi gunā. That is, truth is asceticism, restraint, and in truth resides all virtues. Truth means to live such a life that there is no deprivation in life; Live in such a way that there is harmony between outside and within. He who has realized the truth, understand that all is done; Then there is no need to do anything separately. Violence, lies, anger and competition all disappear in his life. Mahavira has called being true as penance. Mahavira has presented penance in two forms – one is \u27inner penance\u27 and the other is \u27outer penance\u27. He has presented inner asceticism and outer asceticism in six forms respectively. Which is as follows- external asceticism - (1) fasting (2) unodari (3) vritti-brief (4) abandonment of rasa (5) physique-affliction (6) complicity. Antar Tapa - (1) Atonement (2) Vinaya (3) Vaiyavrtya (4) Self-study (5) Meditation (6) Kayotsarga. Mahavira emphasizes that a state should arise within the person, where the person starts seeing his faults rather than others. The moment a person starts seeing his faults, humility appears in the heart of the person. This is possible only through penance. But in this modern age, man has become so insensitive while living with material things that he has broken the connection with his supersensuous powers. He is not aware of his body, his senses. In this age of science, the meditation of Mahavira is absolutely necessary. Because through penance any person can make his life simple and easy. It is only through penance that transformation of one\u27s consciousness is possible
Who is a libertarian and why do we need a libertarian party in India?
No full textThere are a number of different ways to look at the social, political and economic climate prevailing at any point of time, some of the major ones would be Communism, Socialism, Liberalism, Welfarism and so on. These ideologies act as prisms through which a person would look at the world, the world as it is and the world as it should be. They are all encompassing ideologies, which means that they are not limited any particular sphere of life but cover the full spectrum. Libertarianism is another such prism to look at the world centred around the core value of freedom maximizing. The following paper attempts to describe the core tenets of libertarianism, or put another way, it aspires to chalk out who a libertarian is and at the same time make a case as to why we are in a dire need of libertarian party in a deeply socialist country
Mahakavi Kalidas Ki Rachnao me Varnit Prakrati-chitran
No full textKalidasa is one of the best poets and dramatists of Sanskrit literature. He has been considered as one of the Navaratnas of the assembly of King Vikramaditya, of which Kalidasa was the chief one. Kalidasa, who had a deep devotion to Indian culture, considered happiness as the philosophy of life and composed poetry as its means. He has extended this joy in his epics and metaphors. In a composition called Ritusanhara, he has described six seasons which have an effect on lovers. In each of the six cantos, one season is described. All the seasons have been described in this volume in a simple and natural poem, in which summer, rain, autumn, hemant, shishir and spring seasons have been kept respectively. The composition Meghdoot is the best poem in the lyrics. In this too, the depiction of Ramgiri Mountain and Alkapuri Marg is amazing. Here Megh has been made the messenger of the Yaksha by Kalidasa. In Kumarasambhava, he has presented a description of the Himalayas in the first canta, a unique nature depiction of the arrival of spring in the third canto. In the Raghuvamsa, he has called the Nandini cow between King Dilipa and Queen Sudakshina in the second canto as day (Dilip), night (Sudakshina) and evening redness (Nandini) respectively. Abhijnanashakuntalam in Sanskrit literature is the Shiromani gem in plays. Kalidas has a special place not only in Indian literature but in the whole world literature. Because of which he is called Mahakavi and Kavikulguru. In the play Abhijnanashakuntalam, Kalidasa has beautifully expressed love for nature. This play is a unique publisher of the values of Indian culture. Therefore, his love for nature is clearly expressed in the compositions of Kalidasa

Examination of Procedure Safeguards Under the Indian Constitution (Article 21) and Specific Laws Like C.P.C., Bhartiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 and Bhartiya Sakshya Sanhita, 2023
Get PDFThe Indian Constitution guarantees the right to life and personal liberty under Article 21, emphasizing that no individual shall be deprived of these rights except through the procedure established by law. This provision, interpreted expansively by the judiciary, establishes a constitutional framework for procedural safeguards that ensure fairness, reasonableness, and adherence to natural justice principles. The procedural safeguards under Article 21 are further operationalized through statutes such as the Code of Civil Procedure (C.P.C.), the Bhartiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (BNSS), and the Bhartiya Sakshya Sanhita, 2023 (BSS). These laws collectively aim to uphold individual rights while balancing the needs of an efficient justice delivery system.
The C.P.C. lays down the procedural rules for civil litigation, emphasizing natural justice, equity, and fair access to courts. Provisions such as summons issuance, the opportunity for hearing, and appellate mechanisms ensure transparency and protect litigants’ rights. Recent amendments, including electronic case management and alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, demonstrate the commitment to making civil procedures efficient without compromising procedural integrity. In the domain of criminal law, the BNSS, 2023, replaces the colonial-era Criminal Procedure Code with modernized provisions that enhance procedural safeguards. Key reforms include stricter rules for arrests, judicial oversight of investigations, and robust rights for accused individuals, such as the right to be informed of charges and access to legal counsel. Victim-centric reforms, including provisions for compensation and witness protection, are significant steps towards equitable justice.
The BSS, 2023, replaces the Indian Evidence Act, introducing comprehensive guidelines on evidence admissibility in the digital age. The law incorporates safeguards to ensure the authenticity of electronic evidence, protections for vulnerable witnesses, and adherence to fair trial principles. By retaining protections against self-incrimination and ensuring accused persons\u27 rights to confront evidence, the BSS aligns with constitutional mandates under Article 21. Judicial interpretations, notably in Maneka Gandhi v. Union of India (1978), have expanded Article 21’s scope, embedding due process and natural justice into India’s legal system. However, practical challenges, including judicial delays, inadequate enforcement, and resource constraints, continue to hinder procedural safeguards\u27 effectiveness.
To strengthen these safeguards, systemic reforms are necessary, including capacity building for judicial officers, better technological integration in court processes, and public legal education initiatives. These measures will not only enhance procedural fairness but also contribute to timely and effective justice delivery. In conclusion, procedural safeguards under Article 21 and statutory laws such as the C.P.C., BNSS, and BSS are crucial for maintaining the rule of law and protecting individual rights. While recent legislative advancements address contemporary challenges, ensuring their effective implementation will be critical to achieving a robust and just legal system
