Prashant Chandra

How does the Indian legal system work to serve you - and what does it ask of you as a citizen? What are the major laws, codes, and procedures you should arm yourself with to harness the good of the system and fight its ills and travails? Eminent lawyer Prashant Chandra takes the reader through a riveting, detailed, and comprehensive journey through some of India's laws that are of central relevance to daily life.
The primary focus of his book is the importance of liberty. It looks with academic thoroughness on Indian laws relating to liberty. One manifestation of this is the liberty people sometimes seek from each other: in the case of a married couple, for instance, securing liberty can mean securing custody by a parent of his or her child, which often happens because of differences between spouses and their inability to continue life together as a family.
