💨 Abstract

Former Supreme Court judge Justice Rohinton Nariman, speaking at the launch of his book 'The Basic Structure Doctrine: Protector of Constitutional Integrity', warned that events similar to the Jallianwala Bagh massacre could occur if the basic structure doctrine of the Constitution is diluted. The basic structure doctrine was established in the 1973 Kesavananda Bharati judgment, which limited the power of Parliament to amend the Constitution.
