EDITORIAL NOTE

The last two years have been immensely difficult, worldwide, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We are glad that the world is recovering gradually. However, the pandemic has ensued global crisis exacerbating deep-seating social inequalities within our societies. Women, low-income households, children and young people, as well as low-skilled, part-time temporary and self-employed workers, all have been disproportionately affected.

Keeping these issues in mind, the Editorial Board presents the 13th Issue of the Indian Journal of Law and Justice. Once again, with the incessant efforts and ‘never-say-die’ spirit of the editorial team, the India Journal of Law and Justice sets its foot in its journey for the second decade.

Keeping in tandem with the objective of the journal of being a multidisciplinary journal, the key focus of this edition ranges from human rights issues of women, women refugees, human trafficking, trans-rights, the criminal justice system to public health management, artificial intelligence and big data in health sector and human gene editing.

    Understanding the Kamptapur Movement from A Feminist Perspective : A Study of Role and Participation of Women in the Movement for Autonomy
    (University of North Bengal, 2022-03) Arshed (Goswami), Niviya
    The paper is an attempt to understand the Kamptapur Movement of North Bengal the region from the theoretical lenses of the feminist school. It is an effort to trace how the movement which initially started with the demand for recognition and autonomy eventually has ignored and disregarded the role and importance of women leading to a gender-biased construction of identity crisis. Baking primarily on a feminist critic the paper makes a serious effort to find the research gap that was the major factors for understanding the question of identity politics of individuals and groups. Through empirical data and an extensive filed based survey and interviews the paper will try to explain that despite evidence and reports of women participation why there in almost all existing kinds of the literature we find a very narrowly narrated contribution of the women in the movement.
