CRITIQUE OF THE ADMINISTRATION, CURRICULUM, PREPARED MATERIALS, INSTRUCTORS, STUDENTS, AND SCHEDULES OF TRAINING COURSE FOR INDIAN JUDGES.

Abstract

THE AUTHOR RECOMMENDS THAT NOTWITHSTANDING THE VALUE OF THE PROGRAM, CERTAIN CHANGES WOULD ENHANCE ITS BENEFIT TO THE PARTICIPANTS. THE REPORT SUGGESTS THAT THE PROGRAM BE ADMINISTERED BY A FULL-TIME DIRECTOR, THAT PREPARED MATERIALS BE GEARED TO A PRACTICAL RATHER THAN THEORETICAL APPROACH, AND THAT ONLY TRIBAL JUDGES BE ALLOWED TO PARTICIPATE. OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS ARE INCLUDED.
