Description
The Indian Judiciary has come off age. During the last about six decades, the Indian Higher judiciary led by the Supreme Court has established itself as the most creditable and respectable organ of the state due to its statesmanship. Judicial Activism is not a recent phenomenon and it can be traced to the days of Edward Coke in England and John Marshal in United States of America. This book is the result of a serious effort to analyze the judicial activism of the Supreme Court of India in the post 1980 era particularly. It gives a lucid analysis of the concept of judicial activism, reasons therefore and the manifestations thereof.
