About the Law Journal

The HPNLU Law Journal (HLJ) is envisioned to be an annual online publication, owned and published by the HPNLU, Shimla. The periodical is intended to provide a forum to the judges, professors, research scholars, and students for exposition on contemporary legal issues. HLJ finds its genesis in the backdrop that the role of an institution is beyond traditional classroom interaction. It includes deliberations that can affect the society in multifarious ways and support the critical discourse and progressive values that are imbibed in the Constitution. The topography, where the University is located, resembles the terrains of the plural dimensions of law and provides the most conducive opportunity for a publication such as HLJ that dwells deeper into the realms and nuances of these terrains of law and the history of legal system.
