EVALUATING CONTEMPORARY INDIAN LEGAL PEDAGOGY IN DIGITAL WORLD Dr Sunaina, Assistant Professor of Law, Panjab University SSG Regional Centre, Hoshiarpur (India) Download Manuscript doi.org/10.70183/lijdlr.2026.v04.114 Laws keep changing, technology is changing rapidly and scientific developments are taking place. In a country like India that is dedicated to the democratic setup, the rule of law and the ideal of welfare state, the role of legal profession and legal education are very vital. The true aim of legal education must be to bridge the gap between academic and vocation. Legal education in the present context of the country must not only cater to legal profession but also employment. According to Shri G. S. Pathak, former Vice-President of India, “legal education is an investment which, if wisely made, will produce most beneficial results for the nation and accelerate the pace of national development.” The Bar Council of India has from time-to-time proposed measures for reforms in legal education. It categorized reforms to be taken place at certain levels primarily institutional reforms, reforms in content and structure and measures to improve pedagogy and methods of teaching. The present study is an attempt to analyse the contemporary reforms introduced by the Bar Council of India in legal education and their applicability in the current scenario of digital world. It examines the regulatory framework, institutional developments, technological integration, emerging challenges, and future prospects of digital legal education.

TOWARDS INCLUSIVITY: EXPLORING THE ADDITION OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGE TO THE SPECIAL MARRIAGES ACT

TOWARDS INCLUSIVITY: EXPLORING THE ADDITION OF SAME-SEX MARRIAGE TO THE SPECIAL MARRIAGES ACT Govind Dhir, 4th year Student at TNNLU. Download Manuscript ABSTRACT In recent years, India has made progress in LGBTQIA+ rights, notably by legalizing consensual same-sex relationships in 2018 through the Navtej Singh Johar v. Union of India[1] ruling, which struck down Section 377 of the IPC. However, the article argues that more steps are needed to fully eliminate discrimination against same-sex couples. While the criminalization of homosexuality has been lifted, legal recognition for their relationships is still lacking. India’s existing marriage laws only recognize unions between heterosexual couples, leaving same-sex couples without benefits and legal acknowledgment. The article underscores the need for legal recognition of same-sex marriage in India to ensure full LGBTQIA+ equality and dignity, emphasizing the importance of societal acceptance and constitutional principles like Article 14. The article explores strategies for achieving legal recognition, including the adoption of ‘civil union’ as seen in other countries. Changing personal laws to recognize these unions may face opposition based on religious beliefs, making amendments to the Special Marriage Act of 1954 or introducing a new law governing the civil rights of same-sex couples more practical options. Activists and organizations continue to advocate for the legalization of same-sex marriage through legal challenges. Legalizing same-sex marriage is seen as a transformative step towards justice and inclusivity.
