Co-authors to reflect on their observations with Prof. Trilochan Sastry as moderator at a special talk hosted by Centre for Public Policy
16 JANUARY, 2023: Maja Daruwala and Valay Singh, the authors of the India Justice Report for 2022, will present their findings, with Prof. Trilochan Sastry as the moderator, on 20 January 2023 from 4.00 pm at P12, as part of the special talk hosted by the Centre for Public Policy at IIM Bangalore.
Maja Daruwala is the Chief Editor for the report and a Senior Advisor to The Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI). Valay Singh is the Project Lead. The full report can be accessed here.
The crux of the report is succinctly summed up thus: “The performance and shortcomings of judiciary, police, prisons and legal aid – four major pillars of the justice delivery system -- are often complained about but rarely has their collective capacity to deliver justice been objectively assessed. Recognising that democracy, the realisation of rights, development and economic growth are impacted by the degree to which the rule of law is upheld, and justice is accessible, the Tata Trusts initiated a unique research and advocacy project as a means of providing policy makers, researchers, and media folk a holistic resource through which to discern and design policy interventions for reform.
“Uniquely, with a collective of organisations (Vidhi, TISS-Prayas, Centre For Social Justice, Common Cause, and Daksh) working with a data partner, How India Lives, the resource was designed to bring together data from the various sub-systems that make up the justice delivery system and rank the capacity of states to deliver justice.”
