    Syllabus for Women and Criminal Law


    B.A.LL.B. Semester VIII
    Academic Session- January –April, 2022
    Course Teacher: Dr. Shreemanshu Kumar Dash
    Women and Criminal Law
    A woman could become a victim of crime or a target thereof since her inception. Violence
    against women in all its forms is a human rights violation. In a civil society violence against
    women is never acceptable, never excusable and never tolerable. Equality cannot come
    eventually; it’s something to be fought for. This course is, for students acquainted with Criminal
    Law in general, to acquaint them with women and criminal law in particular. An in-depth study
    of the subject will not only help them internalize the significance of law in the related area but
    also it will provoke the learners, as crusaders, to fight for the right of women in their
    forthcoming days.
    This course is designed to acquaint the students, pursuing B.A.LL.B five year programme, with
    the conceptual and operational parameters, of Women and Criminal Law.
