Prof Amit further explained that the Hindu system is based on hierarchy. The gradual institutionalization of Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas and Sudhras was also explained. The caste system became extremely rigid over a period of time. The Hindu Legal and religious system has to be understood in a wider context called holism.

A Faculty Development Programme on ‘Medical Negligence and Law’ was conducted on 15th February 2020 by Mr. Vipul Guar, Assistant Professor of Law, Sushant University. The participants included Faculties, Research Scholars and students from various schools of Sushant University. With rapid developments in the field of medical sciences, cure of various diseases is now possible. It is now possible to revive a patient from crisis situations and treat ailments which were earlier considered to be life threatening. With these advancements in the medical profession, the cases of medical negligence have also increased. Described as the noblest profession in the world, medical professionals at many times are able to infuse a new lease of life into a patient but at times doubts also appear on the horizon and friends and relatives level charges of negligence on the doctors and surgeons. With the increasing awareness among the people about their rights, there is a rise in the number of civil suits and criminal complaints against the doctors who show negligence in their work. After the judgment of Supreme Court in Indian Medical Association v. V.P. Santhara, cases are also filed under the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 seeking compensation for the negligent act allegedly committed by the doctor."

The FDP seeks to understand the cases of medical negligence and the law prevailing on this.

[Webinar Convener]

Income tax continues to be one of the most confused and bleakly understood areas of law even though it pertains to each and every one of us in different ways. Though a lot has been said and done with respect to this area, a lot still remains unsaid and explorable. We know that we are living in the tough and deplorable times of COVID-19. With the advent of the same, there has been a slump in the economy and even the government is facing a tough time in making the ends meet. There have been a lot of reliefs planned by the government for the taxpayers of the country but still, there are some pertinent questions that need deliberations and discussions. Few of them are:

  • 1. Delay in the date of filing the returns and what it means for the government?
  • 2. Reliefs to taxpayers who set up, operate and maintain quarantine centres and the taxpayers who are desirous of contributing their CSR funds to help the society at large.
  • 3. The new income tax regime and the old income tax regime- which would be more beneficial for the working class of the country looking at the present scenario.
  • 4. What are the plans of the government to provide reliefs to those who have lost their jobs owing to the pandemic? The idea behind organising this panel discussion is to provide all the stakeholders involved in this i.e. academics, tax professionals, students and other working individuals an insight into the tax regime in India and to provide a platform to discuss and deliberate on the issues with respect to the same and express their concerns with respect to the future ahead.

School of Law, Ansal University recognizing the efforts of all the delegates, also released the publication of conference proceedings.

The Inaugural Session was followed by four Technical Sessions on Child Protection Laws and role of NHRC and Children in Conflict with Law, Child Rights and International Laws Framework, Issues of Child Abuse and Child Trafficking, Role of NGOs in protection of Child Rights, chaired by Ms. Jyoti Duhan Rathee, Member, DCPCR and Dr. Versha Vahini, Dean SOL, Manav Rachna University, Faridabad; Dr. Sachin Rastogi, AIALS, Amity University, Noida and Dr. Anupam, UILS Gurgaon; Dr. Suman Yadav, University of Delhi and Dr. Prem Chand, NLU Delhi; and Prof. KPS Mahalwar, Former Chair Professor, NLU Delhi and Ms. Chandni Bedi, Executive Director, Navjyoti India Foundation.

The conclusion drawn on the basis of technical sessions was that a great deal of thought needs to be put on this issue even though a lot has been done for children but it cannot be ignored that still a lot needs to be done. There’s a need to prioritize safe childhood globally. Children are being brought and sold for prices lesser than that of animals. We need to protect them from all forms of violence, abuse, and exploitation as it is integral for their holistic development. At an age where they should be in school learning and enjoying their childhood, they are married off; engaged in work – in farms, households, restaurants, and in industries; trafficked for labour and sexual exploitation; and exposed to abuse and violence.

The event was concluded by the Valedictory Session, which was graced by the Special Guests for the evening, Prof. KPS Mahalwar, Former Chair Professor, NLU Delhi and Ms. Chandni Bedi, Executive Director, Navjyoti India Foundation, providing us an insight on the laws available for the rescue of children and how NGOs act on the legal framework. Dr. Poonam Dass, Assistant Professor, Faculty of Law, University of Delhi and Ms. Mansha Gupta and Mr. Ashish Jain, UPES Dehradun won the Best Paper Award.
