Manifesto of the Assam government in tackling growing juvenile crimes


Author(s): Deeksha Bordoloi

Abstract: The Juvenile Justice System in Assam has undergone needed but not the pivotal changes that the system demands over time. Assam ranks number one, among all north-eastern states when we talk about Juvenile Crimes. Each day the growing rate of Juvenile Crimes under the shadow of modernization and globalization, has not left Assam untouched. The timeworn Juvenile Justice structure in Assam has malfunctioned in multiple ways. The Government of Assam has been quizzical in updating the system from time to time, but the steps have failed to justify the enlarging toll of Juvenile Crimes in specific locations in Assam. While the government plans to take adequate steps to control the growing crime rates, new nature of crimes within the Juvenile Structure has been wrapping the Juvenile Justice System in Assam. A way out could be adopting and welcoming structured changes in the Juvenile Justice manifesto to tackle the ‘new issues’ that the system faces in Assam. Local bodies and the media houses can be a game changer in uplifting the status quo of improved status of Juvenile Crimes in Assam.
