Know Your Rights: A Legal Survival Guide for Indian College Students (2024 Laws)

3 Chakrabarti 0 9/16/2025, 3:41:02 AM

India’s criminal laws went through the biggest reform in 150 years last July, replacing colonial-era codes with BNS, BNSS, and BSA.

I wrote a guide for college students in India that covers practical rights and protections: anti-ragging, harassment, cyber fraud, housing, internships, emergency medical care, and more.

Here is the full paper (47 pages) on Academia.edu: https://www.academia.edu/143949864/Know_Your_Rights_Protect_Your_Future_A_Complete_Legal_Survival_Guide_for_Indian_College_Students_Under_New_Criminal_Laws_2024 _

I would be interested in feedback on how accessible this is for students and what else could make it more
