Guardians Of The Republic : Essays On The Constitution Justice & The Future Of Indian Democracy

This book is for every citizen who cares about the future of Indian democracy and the values that hold it together.

Guardians of the Republic takes you to the heart of India’s democratic journey – its promises, challenges, and the questions that define its future. At a time when constitutional values are tested by power struggles, polarization and public disillusionment, eminent lawyer, constitutional philosopher, thinker, author and veteran parliamentarian Dr Ashwani Kumar invites readers to look beyond headlines and reflect on the deeper issues. How do institutions like the judiciary safeguard our rights? Why is judicial review essential for protecting freedoms and what is its scope in parliamentary democracy? What happens when the Constitution’s spirit is overshadowed by political expediency? Through thought-provoking essays, this work explores the meaning of liberty, equality and justice in everyday life. Written with clarity and conviction, Guardians of the Republic is both a critique and a call to action.
