ABOUT PROJECT 39A
Project 39A is a formal part of NLU Delhi and undertakes
research and pro bono litigation efforts on issues concerning the criminal
justice system in India. This effort is inspired by Article 39-A of the Indian
Constitution and uses empirical research as an integral part of re-examining
the criminal justice system. In its current scope of work, Project 39A aims to
trigger new conversations on legal aid, torture, forensics, mental health and
criminal law, and the death penalty.
