Govind Ramnath Kare College of Law, the only Centre for Legal Studies in South Goa, was established in the year 1979 when acute need was felt to enable aspirants from South Goa to pursue legal education. Initially the institution was affiliated to the Bombay University until the birth of the Goa University, to which it is affiliated today. It is recognized by the University Grants Commission (UGC) under Secs. 2(f) and 12(b) and the Bar Council of India for imparting professional education in law and is today accredited by NAAC with a B Grade (CGPA 2.63 on a 4.0 point scale). Looking back at its glory, the institution boasts of its alumni being gold medalists at the University examinations, well-placed corporate employees, high ranking officials in the bureaucracy and several judicial officers including the only two women Judges of Bombay High Court, hailing from the State of Goa.
The institution has state-of-the-art infrastructure and is located in a scenic environment, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, thereby providing a conducive environment for learning. It offers two under graduate programmes, viz. 5 year B.A.LL.B. and 3 year LL.B. programme as well as a 2 year LL.M. programme. The Ph.D. programme will be offered in the coming academic year with the commencement of the Research Centre.
Crime and Criminal Justice are vast and fascinating issues that highlight the complexity of defining and solving social problems. Crime and society are very closely inter-linked. One important aspect of criminal law is victimisation of vulnerable groups, particularly through the use of cyber space and the other important aspect is irregularities in criminal justice administration.
Therefore it is of imperative concern of academicians, research scholars, law makers and law enforcing mechanisms in particular and of the members of society in general to understand these issues of criminal law and contribute in amelioration of all related concerns.
The present seminar shall focus on such aspects of criminal law and help in providing a research based platform for brain storming and providing ways and means for amelioration.
