1.BACKGROUND/RATIONALE:
Juvenile Justice is a legal model that defines justice for juveniles under the Indian Legal System. This system provides special treatment and protection to children in conflict with the law. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) is the most essential legal instrument and foundation of juvenile justice law in India, setting strict standards to ensure the 'best interest of the child'. To protect and promote the rights of children in conflict with the law and those in need of care and protection, the Juvenile Justice (Care and Protection of Children) Act, 2015, has been enacted as comprehensive legislation.
The origin of the Juvenile Justice Committees of the Supreme Court and the High Courts can be traced back to the resolutions passed by the Chief Justices’ Conference from 2006 to 2016. The Chief Justices’ Conference of 2013 specifically resolved to establish the Secretariat of the Juvenile Justice Committee in all High Courts to monitor the implementation of the provisions of the Act in their true spirit, following the example set by the Delhi High Court under the JJ Act of 2000.
