Mr <b>LEGAL RIGHTS OF ADOLESCENTS UNDER THE MENTAL HEALTHCARE ACT, 2017</b>

The intricate and often challenging nexus of mental health and the law, particularly as it relates to our most vulnerable citizens, our children. As legal practitioners, our role is not merely to interpret statutes but to act as sentinels for justice, ensuring that the law serves its highest purpose—to protect and uplift. The law's engagement with mental health, especially for juveniles, is a litmus test of our society's compassion and commitment to a rights-based framework.
