PARLIAMENTARY PRIVILEGES IN INDIA: EXPLORING THE IMPERATIVE FOR CODIFICATION AND A COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE WITH AUSTRALIA

PARLIAMENTARY PRIVILEGES IN INDIA: EXPLORING THE IMPERATIVE FOR CODIFICATION AND A COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE WITH AUSTRALIA Prakriti Dutta, 3rd year BALLB(H), Symbiosis Law School, Pune Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v02.9 “Parliamentary privilege is not a cloak for fraud.” – Lord Denning Is it really necessary to grant special privileges to those who represent, serve, and govern the people? This is arguably the most critical question in the history of democracy. Why should we grant special rights to politicians in their capacities as representatives is a subject that has been posed all across the world? The term “parliamentary privileges” refers to the specific rights and protections afforded to members of parliament; this question becomes highly pertinent. This study digs into the complex world of parliamentary privileges, looking at their development across time and current problems. It gives a thorough analysis of these advantages within the Indian legal system, covering their reach, their immunities, and the precarious balance between accountability and immunity. The research reveals different approaches to parliamentary privileges in various democratic systems through a comparative lens with Australia. The study fervently supports the codification of privileges as a revolutionary step towards enhancing accountability, transparency, and efficient governance. To eloquently depict the complex challenges legislators face while juggling their advantages in the face of the demand for responsible behaviour, a captivating Indian case study is explored.

Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2024.v02.8 This study looks at how truth commissions can help post-conflict communities move toward justice and reconciliation. This study examines the legal frameworks, guiding principles, and procedures about truth commissions through an extensive analysis of international and national legislation, cases, and scholarly works. The experiences of several truth commissions are compared using a comparative method, emphasizing the effects they had on communities, offenders, and victims. According to the report, truth commissions have been helpful in advancing institutional reforms, accountability, and restitution, but they have difficulty bringing about peace and attending to the concerns of marginalized communities.

ROLE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR IN CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

ROLE OF INDEPENDENT DIRECTOR IN CORPORATE GOVERNANCE Nancy Singh Suryavanshi, 4th year BA LLB (Hons.) student at Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies, Bengaluru. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT This article aimed to identify the different concepts of IDs in corporate governance. The term “corporate governance” refers to the structure for managing and overseeing a company. “ID” refers to board members who are not directly affiliated with the company or its administration. In addition to balancing the board’s authority with that of senior management, IDs are brought in to ensure that all board decisions are made from a fair and balanced vantage point. Particularly in publicly traded companies with ownership and control being kept separate, where IDs play a crucial role in corporate administration. In the backdrop of high-profile corporate scandals, the role and effectiveness of IDs in corporate governance have come under scrutiny in recent years. This research paper talks about the function of the ID in the context of corporate governance and its role, legal responsibility, and liabilities. The paper also discusses the challenges faced by IDs in carrying out their duties, such as the potential for conflict with other board members or the need to balance their obligations to different stakeholders, with a comparative analysis between IDs and Executive directors. Additionally, the abstract highlights the benefits that IDs bring to an organization, including increased transparency and accountability, improved decision-making, and enhanced investor confidence.
