n the context of law and its legal clarification in any subject, defining it‟s subdue matter is compulsory. Law is always followed under the decree of its rules, regulations, legislations, and norms of the concerned subject matter. Law plays it vital role in every essentiality of the Indian territory, without a legal definition, no subject can demand its legal entity and identity. The Indian Bosky is one amongst such, which also needs it legal identification in the eye of law, astonishingly, which is not mentioned in the framework of The Indian Forest Act. There are many definitions about the woodlands which covers the entire Copse of the Country. But the prime factor “The Forest” was no where defined in the Indian Forest Act 1865, 1878 & 1927. Neither any policy guidelines, amendments, five year plans mentioned its legal definition in the purview of law. Nor even it mentioned the same in implemented Forest related Act/s post independence. The Indian Boscage was ruled by the then Rajas,Zamindars, Talukdars who followed their own created law/s in their individually earmarked territories . The then feudal powers named the woodland areas as per Vedas, Puranas, Arthashastra, where the Bosky were named as Arannya, Atabi, Bon, Jungle etc, and these identifications were continuing since time immemorial having adequate clarifications regarding the subdue matter.

Implementers of the said Act, the then British Government did not mention subservient the Forest in which the said Act was based upon. It is presumed that either they were in a haste situation in monopolizing absolute supremacy over the Indian Forest or their trading skill did not allow them to emphasize on such logical ethics. But the facts necessitated its answer that, why “The Forest” was not defined in the Indian Forest Act? When the, then British Government condoned the fact. Is it tenable in the eye of law? How the present Governance overlooked essentiality of such legal bindings? Why it was/is not incorporated in amendment/s, policy guide lines, or five years plans? Post Independence when India declared itself as Sovereign Social Democratic Republic Welfare State, how the Governance slighted such legitimate deed? Is it fair enough, to stand on the platform of Democracy and accept such a grave lacuna which invites to challenge the same? Thereby, it is evident that the Democracy demands a logical licit clarification in the eye of law which in not mentioned in the captioned subservient “The Forest” in the said Act which needs elucidation.

New Dimensions of Natural Law in 21st Century in India

Natural Law as ‘higher law’ or the ‘law of nature’ is the oldest as well as the most modern as it has been continually dominating the entire basis of politics, law, religion and social philosophy. Being value loaded it has been a symbol of higher and ideal goals working as a trend-setter or turbulence. Because of its inherent superiority natural law has always been regarded as a frame of reference to adjudge the validity of existing state of affairs whether for maintaining status quo or for bringing about a radical change. Natural law, therefore, should not be considered as a figment of imagination, ‘a salad of illusions’ of philosophers and skeptics defined whimsically without basis or purpose1. We, in this paper, will discuss about the effect and position of natural law in India of the 21st century. As a student of law, we will discuss and understand why, how and whereupto the natural law exists in India of the recent times……….

Since last two decades the Supreme Court of India has been performing the stellar role by taking a Herculean task of comprehensive conservation and protection of forest across the country. It has added a new dimension to environmental scenario in a country. With the help of some cases, it has covered almost all aspects related to forest conservation and other related issues like conservation of biodiversity, national parks etc. The Court has emerged as a lawmaker on forest conservation issues. How far it is correct? What would be the consequences if the same trend persists? This is the focal point of the present paper.
