The Government’s stated objective for making the Rules is to “level the playing field” of online journalism with print journalism. I examine whether and how the Government satisfies this objective. I make two broad claims. First, the Rules fail to “level the playing field”. The objectives, philosophical approach, and substance of the new regulatory scheme are significantly different from those that govern print journalism, and to the disadvantage of online journalism. Second, rather than “levelling the playing field”, the Rules give the Government overwhelming control of online journalism. The Government exercises ultimate control over the regulatory structures and gives itself unprecedented censorship powers over online journalism. If my claims are correct, the Rules will have catastrophic consequences for online journalism and Indian democracy.KEYWORDS: Digital Media Ethics CodePress Council of Indiaonline journalismPress Commissiondigital media ethics AcknowledgmentsFor research support, I am grateful to Arunima Das, Kaustubha Kalidindi, and Ananya Narain.

However, it is often argued that under-inclusive laws are subjected to a low standard of review, which increases the justificatory burden on those who challenge its validity. I argue that there is no support in principle or case law for the argument that under-inclusive laws are subject to lower scrutiny than over-inclusive ones. Linked to this is the question of constitutional remedies for under-inclusive laws, which I analyse drawing on jurisprudence from India and other jurisdictions. Contrary to dominant opinion, I argue that, were the CAA to be declared unconstitutional, the appropriate remedy would be to extend its benefits to those hitherto uncovered by it, rather than striking it down.KEYWORDS: Citizenship Amendment Act 2019CAAunder-inclusive lawsstandard of reviewconstitutional remediesseveranceextension of benefits AcknowledgmentsI thank Tarunabh Khaitan, Faiza Rahman, Apoorva Sharma and Anshuman Singh for their detailed comments on previous versions of this paper.

The paper analyses this provision considering the test for determining inconsistency between statutes in Indian law. It argues that the impact of IBC across different fields of operation brings forth several inconsistencies when deciding a conflict between the IBC and another statute. It presents problems arising due to the supremacy given to the IBC through the non-obstante clause, and exhibits how its application sometimes defeats its purpose. Lastly, the paper analyses insolvency regimes of the UK and Singapore, as well as the UNCITRAL Guide on Insolvency, and presents an example of instituting better cooperation between authorities initiating proceedings against a company under different statutes.KEYWORDS: Insolvency and Bankruptcy Codeinsolvencynon-obstanteSection 238IBCIndian lawnotwithstandingoverarchingblanketconflict Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 South India Corporation (P) Ltd v Secy, Board of Revenue, Trivandrum AIR 1964 SC 207 [215]; Chandavarkar Sita Ratna Rao v Ashalata S Guram (1986) 4 SCC 447; PEK Kalliani Amma (Smt) v K Devi (1996) 4 SCC 76; Moreshwar Balkrishna Pandare v Vithal Vyanku Chavan (2001) 5 SCC 551; Iridium India Telecom Ltd v Motorola Inc (2005) 2 SCC 145.2 Waman Shrinivas Kini v Ratilal Bhagwandas & Co AIR 1959 SC 689.3 ibid.4 ibid.5 M Venugopal v Divisional Manager, Life Insurance Corporation AIR 1994 SC 1343; Hindu Marriage Act 1955, s 16.6 See e.g. Prevention of Money Laundering Act 2002; Electricity Act 2003; Income Tax Act 1961.7 Sandeep Bhalla, Principles of Interpretation in India with Legal Maxims (Lawmystery.com 2006) 121.8 The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code 2016, s 238.9 Ministry of Finance, Government of India, The Report of the Bankruptcy Law Reforms Committee Volume I: Rationale and Design (2015) 12 <https://ibbi.gov.in/BLRCReportVol1_04112015.pdf> accessed 09 August 2023.10 Aravind Gayam, ‘The Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code: All you need to know’ (PRS Legislative Research, 10 May 2016) <https://prsindia.org/theprsblog/the-insolvency-and-bankruptcy-code-all-you-need-to-know> accessed 09 August 2023.11 Reserve Bank of India, Master Circular, Prudential norms on Income Recognition, Asset Classification and Provisioning pertaining to Advances, RBI/2015–16/101, Issued on October 1, 2021, Paragraph 2, Part A.12 The World Bank, ‘Bank nonperforming loans to total gross loans (%) – United Kingdom, India’ (World Bank Open Data) <https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/FB.AST.NPER.ZS?end = 2022&locations=GB-IN&start = 2005&view=chart> accessed 09 August 2023.13 Ministry of Finance, Government of India, The Report of the Bankruptcy Law Reforms Committee Volume I: Rationale an","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135148683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In derogation of a robust indigenous jurisprudence on forced labour, the Indian state has, since 2000, imported the criminal law model of the Convention culminating in the Trafficking in Persons (Prevention, Care and Rehabilitation) Bill 2021. This Bill is a hypercarceral law, the relationship of which with pre-existing labour laws is unclear even as it seeks to abolish sex work. In its zeal to crack down on criminals, its provisions violate fundamental principles of criminal liability and Articles 14, 19, and 21 of the Constitution even while it casts the net of the criminal law wide, threatening to freeze sections of the economy and render the Indian worker a victim who is confined to rehabilitation homes. The article argues for a fundamental rethink of the Bill.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79407145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

What specific insights can we obtain when we ask this question from a South Asian perspective? This Special Issue was curated along these two main questions. The insights that emerge confirm that the prospects for constitutional reform can vary significantly depending on whether a state is in the midst of conflict or whether (for an identifiable reason) it can be designated as being post-conflict. It is possible to have an in-between stage too, a state where the “war” is concluded (at least formally) but a formal solution to the conflict has not been reached, known commonly as a post-war stage. These stages are of course not easy to identify but are indicative of distinctions that are useful to bear in mind when considering constitutional reform. In this Special Issue, five authors (including myself) reflect on these broader questions from the experiences of three South Asian jurisdictions. It has become clear that work on South Asia can benefit from intra-regional comparative work on the lesser known jurisdictions. Nepal, Myanmar, and Sri Lanka, in particular, are proximate jurisdictions that easily lend themselves to an intra-regional comparison on experiences and questions related to conflict. When I planned this project in 2019, it included Myanmar but the papers focusing mainly on Myanmar could not be finalized due to the ongoing crisis in the country. Draft papers were presented at an online workshop in 2020 on all three jurisdictions. After the Peace Agreement of 2006 and the adoption of a new constitution in 2015, Nepal is described as a post-conflict state. Even though sustained violence has ceased in Sri Lanka since 2009, a political settlement to the conflict has not yet been reached. The need for a constitutional solution to the conflict is raised from time to time. In Myanmar, reforms of the Constitution of 2008 were on the agenda over the last decade until the coup of 2021. In all three states, constitution-making and implementation have been closely linked with issues related to transitional justice, restoration of the rule of law, security sector reforms, and economic development. All three jurisdictions have had a settlement or agreement relating to the conflict. The conflicts involve ethnicity, historic injustices, religion, and gender in each of these societies. The experience of constitutionmaking and/or implementation in each of these states has been influenced and impacted by international or regional actors as well as international law. This Issue aims to add fresh voices to ongoing debates on these issues. Every effort was made, therefore, to seek submissions from authors who were from these jurisdictions and at an early stage in their career. Power-sharing is a key concern in all three jurisdict","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72860593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It also played an underacknowledged role in the constitutional life of modern India, helping nationalists pivot from extra-legal resistance to the business of running a state. Independent India could re-activate constitutionalism and the rule of law as ideals because these values were well established among nationalists, albeit in a tradition that had been relegated to the back burner in the run-up to independence. This tradition, exemplified by early Congress figures like Dadabhai Naoroji, Pherozeshah Mehta, and Dinsha Wacha, was heavily influenced by Parsi legal culture. This article also suggests that rule-of-law values were not inescapably colonial. As an ideal, the rule of law caused division within the colonial state, powered anti-colonial critique, and reinforced constitutionalism. Because the rule-of-law agenda was distinct from colonialism, there was no inherent contradiction between Parsi legal culture and the rejection of colonial rule.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73068513","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, TJ and constitutional reform were routinely presented in mainstream political discourses as two agendas in tension competing for political capital. Furthermore, TJ was perceived as controversial and, for this reason, was isolated conceptually and procedurally from other reform agendas. This reinforced the perception that TJ was a measure benefiting solely minority communities and imposed by foreign powers. This misperception, in turn, fuelled continued opposition to this agenda. After recalling the important links between TJ and the rule of law, I argue that a well-designed communication strategy around TJ should have harnessed the pre-2015 momentum for good governance and rule of law reforms in order to foster greater support for TJ.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79204105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
