The Story in Brief
Project 39A, the criminal justice research and litigation centre at National Law University Delhi, has opened a call for original articles and blogs on criminal law, policy and institutional reform. The deadline for submissions is August 30, 2026.
The centre welcomes contributions from lawyers, students, academics, researchers, journalists and practitioners. Topics may include capital punishment, legal aid, custodial violence, mental health and forensics. Blogs must be 800 to 1,500 words, and articles 2,500 to 3,000 words, with co-authorship allowed for up to two authors. Submissions must be sent through the Project 39A website.
The Indian Opinion
This open call is a useful opportunity for fresh voices in criminal justice, but readers should not mistake a blog deadline for a policy change. Project 39A publishes thoughtful scholarship, yet its impact depends on how often such work reaches judges and lawmakers. The real test: will the best of these submissions be cited in court judgments or parliamentary debates within two years? That number will settle the question.
