Book Review "Supreme Court"

The Author has deftly presented a vivid picture of self-rule from the very beginning of 20^th Century and establishment of Federal Court in 1937. The struggle between the Executive and the Judiciary to assert supremacy over the other has been covered with admirable insight highlighting various developments which has made India, what it is today. The topics chosen by the author like, Personal Liberty, Fundamental Rights, Basic Structure Doctrine, Right to Equality, Gender Justice, Public Interest Litigation and Judicial Appointments are not only informative but qualitative also. The Author has done commendable work in highlighting the progress made on women empowerment through judicial pronouncements. Emerging issues such as, Technological Changes, Data Protection and Privacy Law have also been dealt with insightfully. The Author has also addressed the challenges faced by Supreme Court and how justice is being administered in face of the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the complicated issue of Justiciability of law has been beautifully explained for the benefit of the reader.

The commendable lucidity and brevity incorporated in the text of this book makes it more accessible to people even if they are not entirely familiar with the developments this book encapsulates. I have no manner of doubt that the Book, a product of great research will be beneficial to the reader in general and the legal fraternity in particular.
