Moreover, many feminist laws were also framed time to time by our legislature. But unfortunately the crime against women in India is loom pant. Our government is not successful in giving proper security to this vulnerable group. As we know that the growth and development of the country depends upon the growth of their subjects as unless and until their subjects are personally developed in all sphere.

Polluter Pays Principle: Essential Element of Environmental Law and Policy

Environmental Law is one of the fastest growing aspects of law. It is commonly accepted that those who cause damage or harm should pay, in one way or another for such damage. Such damage can be to body, society or our environment. Due to absence of sanctions in environmental law, it became difficult to keep a check on harmful activities. This required the introduction of a penalty to punish people who caused harm to the environment. This gave rise to what we know today as “Polluter Pays Principle”. The principle means that the cost of pollution should be paid by the polluters and not by their governments. This principle is considered to be the most efficient environment policy and has been included in various regional and international agreements on pollution. The concept of polluter pays has been in existence even before the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) adopted it as a recognised principle of environmental law. The research paper explores the applicability, advantages and disadvantages of the polluter pays principle while also looking at the incorporation of the principle in the Indian environmental domain.

Police Reforms and Human Rights

Service is a difficult proposition to measure. This is particularly so when the service is delivered on request of the client. This service provided by the police is also one of these services. Maintaining the satisfaction in the eyes of public is difficult task for them. And they worsen it by not adhering to human rights of the individual. Human rights and the police co-exist for sacred objective of enabling the individual to lead a happy and qualitative living. In fact, police perform unending list of functions which revolves around protection of rights of the people. But the manner in which these functions are performed is the real matter of concern. The police in India, since its birth, have been known as unfriendly with human rights and this has not changed even today. The modern era consists of liberal democracy where rights of individuals have prominent stake. The police, therefore, are required to act in accordance with rule of law laid down in the constitution. Police forces have the authority to exercise force to enforce laws and maintain law and order in a state. However, this power may be misused in several ways. For example, in India, various kinds of complaints are made against the police including complaints of unwarranted arrests, unlawful searches, torture and custodial rapes .This paper is an attempt to explore the relationship between human rights and police and to put a light on the necessity of application of ethics policing to ensure meaningful enjoyment of human rights of India.
