Kinds of Articles
We accept the following kinds of articles for publication on this site -1. NEWS COMMENTARY
A news commentary is a write up about an important event in the field of law. It could be promulgation of a new law, an amendment, or even an important Supreme Court decision.What should it contain
Besides stating the facts of the event, additional information such as Acts/Laws involved, the history/timeline of the matter is very useful for readers. Also provide information on how it affects the rights and liabilities of people, or how it affects existing cases.
Your Opinion matters - It is through intellectual discussions that laws get refined. So your opinion (i.e. whether what happened is good/bad and why) about the event is very important. But it must be clearly marked as opinion and not as a fact.
2. ACADEMIC ARTICLES
