About the Conference
OTT platforms have been a growing trend in the entertainment industry in recent years. Over-the-top (‘OTT’) media platform is one such streaming service that delivers content directly to its consumers over the web.
In India, there is a growing demand for the services of OTT platforms due to an unprecedented increase in the number of persons with access to internet services and smart phones. Various OTT platforms such as Netflix, Amazon, YouTube, Alt Balaji, etc. have also proliferated their services in the Indian market. However, there is an absence of a specific legislation for OTT services to deal with the legal issues related to these OTT platforms in India.
With mounting popularity/viewership and the potential to permeate every nook and corner in the country which vaunts workable internet connectivity, OTT platforms have been in the crosshairs of the government for some time now with the government voicing concerns around unfiltered content and lack of regulation.
The OTT platforms will be required to follow the basic laws of the land while streaming content. Many of the OTT platforms signed a self-regulatory code, the ‘Code of Best Practices for Online Curated Content Providers’ which was released by the Internet and Mobile Association of India (IAMAI).
This code works towards a framework of open disclosure by the platforms. But that doesn’t solve may other problems, the need for an unbiased regulatory body is a must.
The Internet Content Streaming cannot be controlled by a self-regulatory body. The body shall distinguish responsible content for regulation. The OTT platforms and the Government shall work together on this and end this issue once and for all.
At this point of time OTT platform is at a nascent stage across the globe. India needs to make sure that they cope up with the needs of the people while making legislation.

About the Conference
Insurgency within the country has been a content of discord for many States for ages. India is facing armed conflicts within its boundaries for decades and history narrates that it has only grown to the extent of horrendous contours. Insurgency is a global phenomenon in modern-day politics around the world. Politics has a greater role in pacifying the damage done to these people but it has failed in mitigating the damage and restitution of the loss.
In developing nations of the world especially South Asian and African countries, armed conflict or armed rebellion can be identified as the biggest roadblock in implementing welfare and developmental policies. Insurgency not only creates a problem for the innocent citizenry but also creates a void of opportunities for militant groups as well. Armed rebellions are often categorized as demonic and anti-social groups engaged in violence to assert their human rights, but the past has shown that it has been no good to the already deprived and marginalised group of individuals.
Currently, India is facing an insurgency in Northern, North-eastern, Central, and Southern States where the militant groups are in direct conflict with the government. There are varied reasons throughout India for the growth of militancy but deprivation and marginalization have played a major role in the evolution of insurgency. These groups have made it difficult for the State to execute and implement welfare activities in the militant affected areas.
The phenomenon of insurgency is leading to major global issues such as hunger, loss of habitat, malnutrition, non-education, and deprivation of their human rights. The state being the parens patrie carries an obligation to protect the rights of its citizen and at the same time, it has to safeguard and find ways to deal with these groups with iron hands.
India has strict legislations such as AFSPA, UAPA & NSA etc., to deal with any kind of anti-national activity under the pretext of insurgency. These legislations are often labelled as draconian and violators of fundamentals rights of the citizens as they provide special powers to the state authorities in dealing with armed rebellions.
The theme of the conference revolves around the cross-cutting global issues of human rights with reference to the phenomenon of militancy around the world. The theme of the conference primarily focuses on the issues of human rights violation of the militant groups viz a viz the powers of the Armed forces but it is not only limited to the issues of human rights of these groups.
The conference endeavors to initiate a discussion on various issues revolving around human rights across the globe. The theme is further divided into sub-themes covering major human rights issues and attempt to arrive at a holistic understanding through academic discourse.
Objectives of the Conference
The conference is organized to collaborate with various stakeholders associated with the protection of human rights and combatting the insurgency within the country with a view to providing a brainstorming platform to academicians, research scholars, students and policymakers on the issue of militancy and fundamental rights.
The conference also aims to compile the best scholarly data available on the subject and to disseminate the knowledge acquired from the panel discussions and papers presented among the beneficiaries to enrich them with the nuances of the phenomenon.

About Mediation and Conciliation Project Committe(MCPC) Supreme Court of India
Keeping in view the legislative mandate and the spirit of Section 89 of Code of Civil Procedure, the MCPC was constituted by Supreme Court of India to oversee the effective implementation of Mediation and Conciliation in the country.
About the Conference
Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) is a tool to achieve goal of speedy, equitable and adequate justice. This becomes pertinent because traditional approach has failed to solve the chronic problem of delayed justice.
In addition to above, a welfare state like India, where justice occupies uncompromising stature, it calls for greater and focused attention. In this regard, ADR is one such creative approach which will help in achieving justice through securing faster and adequate justice for the masses so that the true meaning of justice is realized.
A variety of disputes are amenable to mediation including commercial, contractual, business, corporate, employment, intellectual property, matrimonial disputes etc. Mediation as a mode of Alternative Dispute Resolution is playing a pivotal role in providing justice to common people. It is empowering common people in the society and imparting justice in a cost effective and expeditious manner.
The thought that has necessitated for organizing such a conference is that the awareness of people regarding their rights has increased in recent times. Such increase has boosted the confidence of common man and enhanced his willingness to undertake litigation.
Unfortunately, the infrastructure with the state has not increased commensurately resulting in backlog of cases. The increment and presence of backlogs have been causing an excruciating delay in the administration of justice.
It was reported that millions of cases are pending in various courts across the country and India is facing unprecedented “litigation explosion”. As per the last census by Ministery of Law and justice the ratio of judges million 17.48%. However, a novel course of action is required as a remedy to this malaise which serves as a compliment to the traditional judicial system, there by helping to reduce the heavy burden of litigation and at the same time not compromising with the standards of equity, justice and good conscience.
Mediation as an ADR mechanism is a process of resolving disputes with the help of a third neutral person who assists the parties at dispute to reach a negotiated resolution. It is voluntary, party centered and structured negotiation process in which a third neutral person assists the parties in amicably resolving their disputes.
In a country like India, where the course of development is skewed and affecting each and every citizen, the demand for justice is increasing at greater pace given the fact that major chunk of our population still remains marginalized, deprived and destitute. However, the cost of litigation has risen exponentially, threatening these sections of society to claim what is their legitimate right.
The concept of ADR is not new to India and has existed since ancient times. The tribes and villages in India are still pursuing such traditional methods of dispute resolution. Thus, mediation as a process of dispute resolution is not new to our nation, what is required in the changed social scenario is an effective adaptation of the traditional methodology to the new conditions. This calls for untiring efforts and devotion to be dutifully put into this process, right from its inception to its culmination into an effective practice.
The conference also becomes pertinent in the light of new Draft Bill on Mediation introduced in 2021. The Draft Bill aims to facilitate and promote mediation in India, particularly institutional mediation for the resolution of disputes, encourage community mediation, and make online mediation an acceptable and cost effective process and therefore this conference is a small step to achieve a greater good for the society.
