  Abstract  A person who divulges wrongdoing, fraud, corruption, or mismanagement is known as a Whistle-blower. The individual will often be an employee, and he is the individual who becomes adept at the manipulation or fraud that takes place within a corporation or institution. Suffering the true and weak voices has been the key agenda of the political parties that have been sold and initiated as 'monetary favors' and come to power by electoral bank policies and collect political parties from Corporate Honchos.  It was a unilateral equation between crooked political parties and business honchos of authoritarian greed. However, as all companies forbid the disclosure of administrative records, the whistle-blower frequently risks punishment, such as work firing and even physical injury. Whistle-blowers are the conscience keepers of the nation, who risk everything to bring the guilty and corrupt to the task.  The present research aims to focus upon the concerns and prob...

  Abstract Vicarious liability in medical negligence is a growing concept in India and most of the jurisprudence for the same comes from either older United Kingdom cases or the cases of the different State Supreme Courts in the United States of America.

It is defined as a domestic cohabitation between an adult couple who are not married. Apparently, it appears like a stress-free companionship without any legal obligations; conversely, it has many complications, responsibilities and legal liabilities.

It is no longer an offence in India  a nd many guidelines pertaining to maintenance, property, the legal status of a child have been issued in various decisions of the Apex Court.

Abstract The paper aims to present a comparative analysis between two foremost yet contradicting provisions prevailing in the country. On one hand, freedom of speech and expression is the basic human and fundamental right, while, on the other hand, contempt of court is the weapon used against the former right.  The perfect irony is that the Constitution of India guarantees fundamental right to freedom of speech and expression vide Article 19 , however it is noteworthy that the very same constitution snatches it away using the power to punish for the contempt under Article 129 and Article 215.

There are a very few democracies that still provide contempt power to courts and India is one such nation.  But it must be kept in mind that it is not the Judiciary which is sovereign but the Constitution that provides the institution with...
