TITLE :REFORMING BAIL LAWS IN INDIA: JUDICIAL INTERPRETATION, LEGISLATIVE GAPS, AND HUMAN RIGHTS CONCERNS
ABSTRACT: The bail system in India is a cornerstone of the criminal justice framework, intended to preserve the presumption of innocence and personal liberty. However, in practice, it often reflects systemic inequalities and arbitrary application. This research paper explores the judicial interpretation of bail laws, identifies legislative lacunae, and evaluates the human rights implications of existing bail mechanisms. It suggests reforms rooted in constitutional principles, particularly Article 21, and aligns them with international human rights standards.
KEYWORDS : Bail Laws, Human Rights, Right to Life, Equality before Law.
