With contributions from some of highly celebrated legal minds, Courts of India is an effort to trace the history of Indian judicial system and the trials and travails it has gone through. All through, the courts have responded to myriad challenges. And, in the process, have reinvented themselves. Even if the hopes and expectations have been met in a large measure, challenges persist, many of them. For the millions in the country, the access to justice as yet remains a mere illusion.
Beginning with indigenous judicial structures, the book describes different courts: from the first colonial ones (1500-1700) to the present-day supreme court of India and high courts. It shows how the supreme court has been a kind of the conscience-keeper of independent India. These besides, it also includes the famous trial cases that made history. | Top |
