Description
About the Book
This book captures the journey of the Indian Supreme Court from 1950 onwards, tracing its evolution through the various phases of the Indian judiciary - from the constitutional judiciary to the activist judiciary and finally to the assertive judiciary.
The author concludes that, in the Indian context, the judiciary cannot be termed as an overreaching judiciary. The Indian Constitution has provided very specific roles to the judiciary, including the power of law-making under Article 141.
Highlights
- Covers the journey of Indias Prime Ministers from Jawaharlal Nehru and Indira Gandhi to Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Narendra Modi.
- Discusses major landmark judgments - from the declaration of the basic structure doctrine of the Constitution to the Sabarimala verdict.
- Explores how the role of the judiciary shifts over time depending on the effective or ineffective functioning of the government.
Why Read This Book?
An insightful and well-researched account for readers interested in Indias legal history, constitutional law, political landscape, and the dynamic relationship between the judiciary and the government.
