This marks the first-ever journal publication by the Department of Legal Studies since its establishment. Recognising the importance of fostering a research culture and providing a platform for legal scholars to share their findings, the Department-initiated work on this journal last year. We are overwhelmed to receive number of articles, book reviews, and case reviews for our first issue. After undergoing a rigorous review process, we have selected four articles, one case review, and one book review for the first issue. This inaugural issue comprises contributions from both international and local scholars. The current issue contains four articles covering the rights of suspects, corporal punishment of children, national legal regime of pesticide use, governance of natural resources. Additionally, a case review on air-space law and a book review on the inter-connection between Neoliberalism and human rights are included. The editorial board extends gratitude to the eminent reviewers from overseas and local, for their immense support, without which this endeavour would not have been possible. The English Language Department contributed significantly to language editing of manuscripts. We express our appreciation to the assistants of the editorial board, desktop publisher and the Open University press for their unwavering support. This inaugural issue stands as the outcome of a collective effort and dedication. We hope this journal will serve as a valuable source for the legal scholars, practitioners, and law students.
