The other side of Gender Bias: Legal and Social Inequalities faced by Men

Dr. Sunita Yadav

Abstract

Even though India has made great strides in empowering women via social and legal reforms, the discussion of gender justice is still lacking if the difficulties faced by males are not taken into account. The misuse of Section 498A IPC, unfair alimony rulings, false rape accusations, gender-biased domestic violence legislation, contemporary feminist interpretations, male suicides, and media biases are just a few of the urgent concerns that are brought to light by this research study, which illuminates the overlooked facets of men's rights. This study assesses whether present legislation and public attitudes reflect a balanced approach to gender justice using doctrinal and qualitative research, and it suggests revisions to guarantee equality before the law for all genders. In recent years, the conversation surrounding gender equality has primarily focused on empowering women. Although this is crucial and long overdue, it has frequently overlooked the emerging concerns that disproportionately impact men. This paper delves into the various challenges that men encounter in today's society, especially in the realms of legal, social, and psychological aspects. Significant issues such as the abuse of Section 498A of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), the controversial topic of alimony, the rising instances of false rape claims, the push for gender-neutral domestic violence laws, and the influence of the contemporary feminist movement on men's rights are examined in depth. Furthermore, it explores the troubling increase in suicides among men, the deficiency of institutional assistance for men who have experienced abuse, and the influence of the media in influencing public views. By employing qualitative and legal evaluations, this paper seeks to foster a fair conversation regarding men's rights, promote policy changes, and underscore the significance of inclusive gender justice for achieving a genuinely equitable society.

Challenges of Integrating AI into the Education System

Dr. Boby Narayan, Dr. Sangeeta Jauhari

Abstract 

The integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into the education system presents numerous challenges that need careful consideration and strategic planning. One of the primary hurdles is the lack of infrastructure, particularly in underfunded schools, where the implementation of AI tools requires significant investment in hardware, software, and training. Another challenge is ensuring equity in access to AI-powered education, as disparities in digital literacy, internet connectivity, and device availability can widen existing educational inequalities. Furthermore, AI’s ability to personalize learning raises concerns about data privacy and the ethical use of student information, as well as the potential for biased algorithms to exacerbate discrimination. Teachers also face the challenge of adapting to new AI tools, which requires both time and professional development to effectively incorporate into their teaching practices. There are concerns about the impact of AI on the traditional role of teachers and the fear that automation may reduce the human element in education, which is crucial for student development. Overcoming these challenges requires thoughtful policymaking, investment in teacher training, and a commitment to inclusivity to ensure that AI can enhance, rather than replace, the human-centered approach to education.
