In the present context of lockdown amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, most of the students are at their homes doing their online classes and attending their lectures in the virtual mode. But little do they realise that there is a lot of more things to do in between this period of pandemic than to just sit at home and attend the virtual lectures. Here is a list of things which any law student can undertake during the lockdown very easily:

The extensive legal protection for human rights that currently exists in national, regional and international law is the product of millennia of struggle by individuals concerned with human justice and well-being. Human Rights governed under International Human Rights Law define the will of human rights. The distinct feature of rights related to human beings is the fact that emergence of human rights or the recognition of the rights cannot be pinpointed to one specific era or period. Research Scholars, historians among other prominent academicians have been unable to agree on one specific date as to when these rights were recognized.

Many law students face difficulties when they enter professional life. It is aptly said - it is one thing in theory and another in practice or to perform. However, if law schools adequately prepare their students they can perform exceptionally well. In developing countries, the system depicts a sorry story, and improvement in law schools is yet to be seen. It could be a complete recipe of disaster for the legal profession.

COVID-19 has given rise to an unprecedented crisis across the globe. It has brought the attention of countries to the importance of balancing the different forces of nature to save the human life. But it has undermined the other basic human rights to a large extent. Vulnerability to human rights has always been the concern of humanity as a whole and community at large. This has further been exposed during COVID-19.

In India, we have two types of taxes. First, Direct taxes which are directly paid by an individual taxed on Salary, wages, commission etc. Indirect taxes which are indirectly paid by an individual for the goods purchased by an individual such as Service Tax, Excise Duty, Value Added Tax etc. G.S.T that is goods and services tax has been introduced in India on 1st July 2017. G.S.T has been applied only on the part of Indirect taxes. As the name of the tax suggests it will be applied on the goods and services rendered to the consumers.

Law is a way of life, not merely one’s career. It is perhaps, the sole profession (besides medicine of course) which is inevitably applied and verily utilized by each and every person at some point of time in their lives. Whether a lawyer or not, one inexorably does come across this field in its variant forms, be it a relative’s property dispute, a family member embroiled in a civil litigation, a stark case of corporate fraud or an unfortunate series of criminal trials. It is thus, significant to comprehend and appreciate the law, not merely because it is one’s career, but a knowledge based skill that may be ubiquitously and pragmatically used by one and all.

In the year 1991, a meeting of representatives was held in Paris which is related to UN-sponsored. The meeting concluded a detailed set of principles on the status of national institutions. These are universally known as the Paris Principles. These principles, subsequently recognized by the UN Commission on Human Rights and the UN General Assembly have become the foundation and reference point for the establishment and operation of national human rights institutions.

Statements that constitute part of the res gestae are attributed a certain degree of reliability because they are contemporaneous, making them admissible by virtue of ‘the nature and strength’ of their connection with a particular event and their ability to explain it comprehensively. The law considers them as sufficiently reliable to overcome the expansive coverage of the exclusionary hearsay rule, making admissible statements that would otherwise constitute inadmissible hearsay.

The legal profession as it exists in India today had its beginning in the earlier years of British rule. The most talented and bright among the Indians were attracted to the study and practice of law. The legal professionals dominated the public life of the country and played a prominent role in the national struggle for freedom. Law profession produces so many great leaders who not only fought for the freedom of the country but also fought against the social discrimination and bad practices prevalent in the society.

India is a very young country. Citizens in India are very less than in age like 60% of Indians are below 30 years, and with a country of political democracy, a parliamentary democracy the political development is the main nerve of the country. But sadly, in the present era the political system which was created to solve the problems of the country has become itself the biggest problem of the country.

Law as a profession plays an important role in developing lawyers who act as social engineers and work towards the cause of nation building. Legal education is not just imparting legal knowledge and training the students to equip with skills to handle legal profession, but it is also an instrument of national development to deliver social justice to the people. Manubhai Pragaji Vashi v. State of Maharashtra, AIR 1996 SC 1“… the need for a continuing and well-organized legal education is absolutely essential reckoning the new trends in the world order, to meet every growing challenge. The legal education shall be able to meet the ever-growing demands of the society and should be thoroughly equipped to cater to the complexities of the different situations.”

The world talks about globalization, technological development etc. The parameters of a developed nation is always measured in terms of financial development. There is no space for a common man's interest or welfare. There is no conscious effort of individual human development. The quality of being humane, benevolence, compassionate, sympathetic or generous behavior is at vanishing end. Normal humanity includes insight, sense, conscience and character.

"I raise up my voice not because I am cognoscenti or I can shout but so that, those without a voice can be heard, as we all cannot succeed when majority of us are held back." As one learns from the conditions of women worldwide they are ill-treated in most of the countries, which eventually has been a direct blow on the face of law, being the state of law not maintained diligently.

A majority of people consciously or unconsciously believe that movies, or for that matter media in general, are often said to be the reflection of the society. It has been the topic of discussion that media truly reflects the society, there's no doubt that media have a big socio-cultural influence on the society. As far as showing women in advertisements of recent times too, a woman's advertisements are a concern with things which have only worsened over time.

In the current scenario where the immoral and unethical practises are increasing day by day, the need of whistle blowing is gaining immense importance. Whistle blowing is a term which is not so popular, and people mostly do not know about it. Whistle blowing refers to the process in which a person from the organisation tells someone else about an illegal or unethical practise in the hope that someone will do something to change that particular practise.
