However, the Sri Lankan parliament became a peripheral player within the constitutional structure with semi-presidentialism introduced by the 1978 Constitution. While the Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution attempted to establish multiple constitutional centres of accountability, the position of the parliament remained peripheral. The centrality of parliament within the constitutional structure is a crucial condition for a robust model of parliamentarianism with effective checks and balances. Based on the example of German constrained parliamentarianism, I argue for the importance of further reform towards transforming the parliament from a peripheral player to the central player in the constitutional structure. Reforms should aim to regulate the composition of the parliament by constitutionalizing parties, to strengthen the institutional capacities of the parliament and to constitutionally assert the autonomy of the parliament vis-à-vis the president.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80635782","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}

Being a facet of the doctrine of stare decisis, the “Larger Bench Rule” achieves certainty, equality, and efficiency in adjudication, and secures public legitimacy for the Court. The Rule also accords equal weight to the wisdom of every judge. But the Court has breached the Rule in some key cases. We trace seven instances where smaller or coordinate benches explicitly or impliedly overruled binding judgements. The Court did this, we show, by ignoring precedent, shoddily “distinguishing” precedent, expressly disagreeing with precedent on merits, or unfairly declaring the precedent invalid for itself contravening the Larger Bench Rule. Finally, we suggest – preliminarily – some measures to ensure adherence to the Rule in future.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84380020","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}

Divine labours, devalued work: the continuing saga of India’s surrogacy regulation 神圣的劳动,贬值的工作:印度代孕监管的持续传奇

Fifteen years since the first proposed regulation of assisted reproductive technologies and surrogacy, the 2019 Bill leaves much to be desired. It reflects a limited understanding of the complexities of surrogacy, is discriminatory in its approach, is plagued by lack of clarity, is unrealistic and most importantly, does not include adequate safeguards for the surrogate. Women’s reproductive labour in performing surrogacy is valorized but not compensated. Even though the Bill may well accept some recommendations of the Rajya Sabha select Committee, its failure to address issues that we highlight will mean that if passed, it will be challenged in the courts on constitutional grounds. This will generate uncertainty for years, for many infertile couples and individuals who look to the law for streamlined regulation, defeating its main purpose in facilitating a novel mode of reproduction.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82889882","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 this article, I am concerned with the implications of these assumptions in states that can be categorized, broadly, as post-war. Where an armed conflict has ceased, but a political solution to the conflict has not been reached, a state may be categorized as “post-war”. Focusing on Nepal, Sri Lanka, and to some extent Myanmar, I ask the following questions: How should the emerging norm of public participation in constitution-making be understood and applied? What approaches are most useful in dealing with the dimensions of public participation in constitution-making in states that are post-war? I argue that six dilemmas arise in public participation in constitution-making. They are 1) conflict resolution and state formation, 2) democratization, 3) transparency and accountability, 4) the transnational dynamic, 5) constitutional literacy, and 6) constraints of resources and time.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75603815","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 is notable that with an increasing number of couples approaching courts to seek state protection after solemnizing their marriages via Arya Samaj, the latter has come under the judicial scanner. This has brought many issues related to such services to the fore. A detailed discussion of one of such cases has been undertaken and contextualized with reference to Arya Marriage Validation Act 1937 and Hindu Marriage Act 1955 to show how these services exist in a dynamic, accommodative, and conflicting relationship with the legal system. This has implications for those who use Arya Samaj services, in our case, couples in non-conformist marriages, as well as for our understanding and evaluation of the Indian variant of legal pluralism.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74266914","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}

The author will shed light on the importance of legalizing second parent adoption and permitting direct placement adoption. The paper proposes that necessary amendments must be carried out in the 2015 Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection) Act [JJ Act], thereby making the adoption laws in India more comprehensive and ensuring that the concerns are addressed.

The Competition Commission of India’s sector-agnostic approach in busting anti-competitive conduct has allowed it to drive pro-competitive reforms in various sectors. In this context, the Competition Commission of India has taken a keen interest in addressing the issue of cartelization. This article delineates the manner in which the Competition Commission of India identifies and imposes liability on cartels, with the aim of increasing regulatory compliance and promoting robust competitive markets. This involves a review of the evolving standards of proof adopted by the Competition Commission of India, and jurisprudential concepts introduced to address the peculiarities of Indian markets. The article also seeks to provide insight into the procedural hurdles typically encountered during cartel investigations. Finally, it addresses the constant conflict the Competition Commission of India faces with other fairly established sectoral regulators.","PeriodicalId":13511,"journal":{"name":"Indian Law Review","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80051494","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}

This article examines the economic circumstances in which India acquired its modern competition law and evaluates the sufficiency of this law for recent developments in India’s digital economy. Rapid technological developments and the emergence of virtual markets, networks and platforms in India suggest that the Indian competition authority, the Competition Commission of India (“CCI”), may need to adopt a more nuanced approach in identifying relevant markets than it has hitherto applied in respect of more traditional sectors. The rapid evolution of the digital economy also raises the basic issue of whether an economics-based law should have a definite structure or allow for flexibility of incorporating market dynamics.
