ABOUT: JSLR JOURNAL
Journal for Law Students and Researchers (JLSR) envisions to empower the individuals of tomorrow to advance and learn from the theoretical and practical aspects of contemporary law today. Law as a field is predominantly present in the lives of people in society, and as such its discourse and dissemination are requisite in a proper forum today. Journal for Law Students and Researchers (JSLR), therefore, acts as a platform for the researchers and students, along with academicians to publish their research on contemporary issues of the law, so as to enable the growth and understanding of the aspects of the law to the interested individuals in society.
This enables engagement in a fruitful discourse with the public, for their informative purposes and the awareness of the unaware on key legal issues. The ambit of the JSLR, includes topics on important socio-legal contexts, socio-economic factors in law, or any other related theme pertinent to any field of law today.
ABOUT THE EVENT YOUTH- PARLIAMENT
The main purpose behind conducting an E- Youth Parliament is for the students to understand the working of our Palriament Institution. The Youth Parliament is a program in which group discussion and role-playing techniques can be used effectively. Citizenship is not a subject; it is a way of living. Therefore, its learning
demands appropriate practice in the living of it. Our approach has to be, not “What does a good citizen know?” but “what does a good citizen do, and what must he know to do it?” Citizenship education cannot be imparted merely by providing students with factual information. We have to think not only in terms of developing competencies in students but also in terms of influencing their attitudes which are essential for running democracy in the country on the right lines.
The Youth Parliament is one such competition by which we can impart some real citizenship education.
