Over 50,000 Children await Justice: Launch of IJR's Report on JJ and CCL by J Lokur

Описание: 2025 marks a decade since the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Amendment Act, 2015, was enacted. It is a critical moment to evaluate the Act’s journey and impact. The IJR's new Juvenile Justice Study assesses how well states have equipped themselves to fulfill their statutory obligations under the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015 specifically in relation to Children in Conflict with Law (CCL). Drawing primarily on parliamentary responses, and more than a year-long RTI-based inquiry across states, the study analyses the capacity of key institutions—Juvenile Justice Boards, Child Care Institutions, Special Juvenile Police Units, and Legal Services—across four vital parameters: infrastructure, human resources, budgets, and diversity.
