End Term June 2016 NATIONAL LAW UNIVERSITY, DELHI B.A.LL.B.(Hons.): III-YEAR, VI-SEMESTER End-Semester Examinations, June-2016 Paper 6.1: Jurisprudence-II Time: 3.00 Hours Total Marks: 50 Instructions: 1. Read the questions carefully and answer. 2. No clarification shall be sought on the question paper 3. Do not write anything on the question paper except your Roll No. Q.1 (A) Focussing on Part-III and Part-IV of the Constitution identify provisions which are in tune with Amartya Sen’s approach to justice. (4 Marks) (B) Do these provisions comprehensively reflect • Amartya Sen’s approach. • Nussbaum’s approach. If yes, how. If not what additional provisions will you propose to make the Constitution completely embody Sen’s approach. (4 Marks) (C) There is a fundamental distinction between Rawl’s approach and that of Amartya Sen. Elaborate. (3 Marks) Q.2 Techno is a rich, developed country in Europe which has made great strides in the field of science and technology.Naturo is a developing country in Asia with low GDP. Naturohas enormous natural resources which have remained untapped till now because of lack of technical expertise. Techno has a sizeable population dependent on agriculture but because of deterioration of soil quality, diseases caused by pests and fluctuating climatic conditions the agricultural production has plummeted pushing the farmers into penury. There have also been reports of suicides among these farmers. A major company incorporated in Techno called Opportuno approaches the dictator of Naturo and offers him 50% stake in their company in return of the permission to use the tropical forest of Naturo for the purposes of research. The use of forest is transferred to Opportuno. The tropical forest is rich in flora and fauna, especially rare herbs. Jeena community has inhabited this tropical forest since time immemorial. They have been dependent on the forest for their survival. As part of the deal with the dictator Opportuno provides Jeena community with stock of cereals for survival though their access to natural forest produce is reduced. The company also offers the community rehabilitation in another forest but many members of the community refuse the same on account of the spiritual significance of the tropical forest for the community. Opportune conducts large scale experiments and produces many new hybrid varieties which are high yielding, resistant to pests and can withstand sudden fluctuations in climatic conditions. The growth of new varieties endanger the old varieties and the latter become scarce. Opportune gets patent protection for all the new varieties. Jeena community gradually gets pushed to the outskirts of the forest making it difficult for them to find adequate resources.They start migrating to nearby cities where many of them being unable to cope up with the life in cities are pushed into state of severe helplessness and extreme poverty. Most of them become anaemic, malnourished and life expectancy reduces enormously. The community almost reaches the stage of extinction. P.T.O. (a) Does Techno have an obligation towards Jeena community? Present arguments based on two separate philosophical foundations. (5 Marks) (b) A group in Techno argues that Techno has obligation only towards the poor agriculturalists of Techno who are in vulnerable condition and they are being helped through experiments in tropical forest. The obligation with respect to Jeena is only limited to the state of Naturo. They are too far away from Techno so it is not advisable to envisage any obligation of Techno with respect to Jeena. Rebut the argument of the group in Techno. (3Marks) Q.3 The Hindu Succession Act, 1956 recognises an equal share of daughters in the self earned property of the father. Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act, 2005 recognises daughters as coparceners. Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 embodies an obligation to provide maintenance to a divorced wife. The Muslim Women Act (Protection of Rights on Divorce), 1987 which provides maintenance to a divorced wife was interpreted liberally in Danial Latifi v. Union of India (2001)7 SCC 740. Can it therefore easily be claimed that law relating to property rights in India secures gender justice. Argue. (6Marks) Q.4 Classify the following within the Hohfeldian scheme: (i) Right to make a will (ii) Right to transfer property (2+2=4 Marks) Q.5 Being unstable, indeterminate, reified and politically ineffective rights appear to be mere paper tigers, incapable of bringing about justice. Comment. (6 Marks) Q.6 In Almitra Patel v. Union of India (2000) 3 SCC 575 the Supreme Court observed that slum dwellers are encroachers on public land and said that giving them free alternative site is like giving reward to a pickpocket. (i) Which legal concept forms the basis of this observation? Which specific approach to the concept provides the rationale for this kind of reasoning. (ii) Offer a critique of the observation of the court. (3+3=6 Marks) Q.7 In the last decade there has been large scale acquisition of land by the state for the establishment of Special Economic Zones (SEZs). In this process land has generally been acquired from small farmers dependent on their land for their livelihood and is transferred to private developers (generally big industrial houses) to establish SEZs. You are engaged by the farmers to argue against such acquisition. Argue. (5 Marks) Q.8 (i) Law relating to Adultery represents the transcending of boundaries between two legal concepts. Discuss. (2 Marks) (ii) Distinguish between possession and ownership.

He claims that since ring has been found by him, it must belong to him. Whereas B claims it as his. Decide by citing precedents.

For the provincial literati, emphasizing Bihar as an “organic” entity cultivated a sense of common belonging that was remarkably novel for the period, particularly because it implied that an administrative region had transformed into a cohesive cultural unit. The transformation is particularly revealing because the claims to a “natural” Bihar was not based upon a distinctive language, ethnicity or religion. Instead this regional assertion was partially instigated by British colonial politics and in part shaped by an emergent Indian national imagination. The emergence of a place-based Bihari identity therefore can only be explained by situating it in the context of 19th century colonial politics and nationalist sentiments.

  • Congress Socialist Party (Csp) at a Glance and Short Profiles Works of Its Leaders
    CONGRESS SOCIALIST PARTY (CSP) AT A GLANCE AND SHORT PROFILES WORKS OF ITS LEADERS In 1926, Sampurnand and Acharya Narendra Deva draw up a socialist agrarian program, under the aegis of UP Congress Committee (UPCC) and send it to the perusal of AICC. Jawaharlal Nehru got the AICC, to accept this UPCC’s Socialist Programme, in 1929.At the 1931, Karachi session of the Indian National Congress, socialist pattern of development was set as the goal for India and resolution on fundamental rights and economic programme was passed by AICC. According to Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru, who drafted the Karachi resolution of AICC, the origin of this resolution was UPCC’s resolution of 1929. (Pt.J.L.Nehru’s Autobiography, P.266). During 1932 movement, many socialist-minded young men people like Jayaprakash Narayan, Minoo Masani, Achyut Patwardhan, Ashok Mehta, Charles Mescrenhas, Narayan Swami, M L Dantawala, N G Gorey and S M Joshi were lodged in Nasik Jail in 1932-33, in connection with Civil disobedience Movement. While in jail they all felt to form a Congress Socialist Party with in the Congress Party (INC) wedded to Marxism. At the same time a group of ‘left wing’ Congressmen disillusioned with the policy of Congress, met at Poona in July 1933 for the purpose of organizing a Socialist opposition group. They elected a committee to draft a constitution and programme which subsequently became known as the “Poona draft ”. The meeting was organized by Purshottam Tricumdas, Yusuf Meherally, Smt. Kamladevi Chattopadhyay and Acharya Narendra Deva. (Selected works of Acharya Narendra Deva, vol.1 page 29).

The zamindar became the pivot around which the implementation of these flood control efforts revolved. Along with the railways and roads, the uncontrolled manner in which many zamindary embankments were built led to a deterioration in the flood situation. By the 1930s, there was a strong view among engineers that rivers should not be controlled and em- bankments should be removed wherever possible. However, in contrast to the new official technical doctrine on flood control, a slew of powerful social and economic interests argued for retaining the ‘protected areas’ through embankments.

  • Agrarian Structure and Peasant Mobilisation : the Bataidari Struggle in Madhubani, 1967-75 *
    AGRARIAN STRUCTURE AND PEASANT MOBILISATION : THE BATAIDARI STRUGGLE IN MADHUBANI, 1967-75 * M. N. KARNA North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong. Of late the thickly populated North Indian district of Madhu- bani in the State of Bihar has experienced ferments in the life of peasants. The seeds of political awakening among small peasants, sharecroppers and landless agricultural workers were sown by the communist Party of India (CPI) in the late 'forties and have now burgeoned into a vociferous section resisting the exploitative char- acter of the landowning class. Even the former Zamindars, influen- tial Mahanths and powerful landowners admit that there is a fast growing consciousness among their erstwhile dependents who had once been mute and inarticulate and who meekly bore with repres- sion. The Madhubani peasant agitation is primarily a struggle of sharecroppers for their rightful claim. A close scrutiny of the back- ground and nature of the struggle of bataidars between 1967-75 launched by the CPI is intended here. The emphasis will be chiefly on the agrarian setting of the region, the programmes and objectives of the struggle, the organisation aimed at the realisation of these goals and the shaping influences of the movement.
