Explore the profound journey of the Indian Constitution with ‘Transformative Constitution’ by Gautam Bhatia, a finalist for the Tata Literature Live Non-Fiction Book of the Year 2019. This insightful book challenges the notion that the Constitution is merely a founding document. Bhatia delves into its pre-Independence roots, arguing it was designed for radical social and political transformation, not just a shift from subjects to citizens. Discover how, over seven decades, the promise of equality and freedom has been tested, with colonial-era laws persisting and even influencing judicial interpretations. ‘Transformative Constitution’ offers a fresh perspective on constitutional law, advocating for an interpretation faithful to its original vision of deep societal change. Essential reading for anyone interested in Indian law, politics, and the pursuit of a truly transformative democracy.
