Human rights are not just values deserving to be taught, but also principles that should be put into practice. In the context of the school, human rights can take the form of student rights. Human rights of students is the unchartered territory when it comes to the study of human rights and its violations. As obedience, discipline and sincerity is sought from students from their very childhood and they are made obsequious many of their human rights are infringed upon. Rights of students are not an isolated silo when it comes to the study of human rights but is a penumbral human right. Many of the human rights of students are enshrined in the Constitution of India in the form of fundamental rights like Right To Education, Right to Freedom of Speech & Expression, Right To Form Associations and Educational & Cultural Rights.
The efficiency of Indian universities especially public universities being questioned due to various grievances from students, fall in international university rankings and increasing unemployment among university graduates there is a need to revisit education among students with a greater emphasis on secondary and higher education and to analyze whether various educational institutions in India are fulfilling the mandate of human rights.
As many of the central universities are becoming sites of resistance, struggle, conflict and national politics this paper will try to analyze whether student politics is essential part of university education and is it genuine which tries to address the problems of students or it just acts as a recruitment ground for political parties.
The paper tries to analyze the various human rights that are available to students and their prospective violation. With university education largely affecting the employment rate in India the efficiency of university education should be critically analyzed and its effects on career prospects of students should be revisited.

The legal profession has long claimed that there are process-based differences between legal reasoning — that is, the thinking and reasoning of lawyers and judges — and the reasoning of those without legal training. Whether those claims are sound, however, is a subject of considerable debate. We describe the importance of using categorization and analogy, following rules and authority, and the odd task of “fact-finding”, in the legal system.
This paper aims to find how legal reasoning plays a part in the legal system from the perspective of judges and lawyers. It also examines the difference in legal reasoning in Civil as well as common law.

“Just as medicine treats all patients and all diseases, just as criminology concern itself with all the criminals and all forms of crime, so victimology must concern itself with all the victims and all aspect of victim city in which society takes an interest.” – Nelson Mandela
The criminal justice system throughout the world is in the hands of State and State being at the centre stage. Law and order is the foremost duty of the State. With this primary duty the state fosters peace, prosperity, maintains rule and order and provides access to Justice for all. Every citizen in the modern welfare state is expected to have the basic human rights. Whenever these rights are violated the judicial system provides mechanism for redressal of such violations. Whenever a citizen is harmed, injured, killed as a result of crime, he or she is referred as “victim”. Though there has been inbuilt mechanism to initiate criminal proceedings against the offender of such crime, however such victim may himself seeks justice by setting the criminal justice system in motion either by informing the police about the same or by complaint. Crime affects the individual victims, their families and causes financial losses to the victims. These crimes cause serious and psychological injuries to the families of victim of crime. Such an act needs to be well and properly redressed by the courts by providing the victims easy access to justice. It is only in the past few decades that the impacts of victimization on crime have affected the person and drew their attention towards the present system of criminal justice and asked to be treated with compassion and dignity so that their fundamental rights must be protected and preserved.
