35 Hours Master-Class Series on “Constitutional Law” by Jurist Sudhish Pai!
- Year of Publication: 2021
- ISBN: 0
Course Duration:
2000+ minutes comprising of 30+episodes
Course Background:
How does a Constitution Speak? How do we get its messages? Is it merely by reading the text and going by the letter of the law? Or is it something more profound and fascinating? Is there a sound in the silences as well? A Constitution does not work itself or speak like an oracle. It is by judicial interpretation that many a time you breathe life into the provisions of a Constitution.
Sample this – (1) Almost at the very inception of the Indian Constitution, we have cases of Romesh Thappar and Brij Bhushan where the Hon’ble Supreme Court construed Article 19(1)(a) - the right to freedom of speech and expression, to include freedom of the press, (2) Another one – Our Constitution does not stipulate that the senior-most judge of the Supreme Court must be appointed the next Chief Justice of India; Article 124 is silent about this, however, convention has developed in this regard that the senior-most judge shall be the next Chief Justice of India, (3) The greatest example of construing the Constitution and exploring and voicing the meaning beyond the text is the Kesavananda Bharati case which enunciated the doctrine of basic structure. [Excerpts Sourced from E-Book Titled "Constitutional Supremacy - A Revisit" authored by Mr. V.Sudhish Pai and Published by Oakbridge Publishing]
