India's Legal System: From Due Process to Procedure

India's Legal System: From Due Process to Procedure

Imagine India's constitution is like a promise to protect everyone's basic freedoms, like the right to live freely and speak your mind.

There was a big court case a long time ago that said any law made must be fair and reasonable, not just follow steps.

But lately, it feels like the government is using laws that only follow the steps, without making sure they are fair.

This means people might not be able to speak out or protest as much.

Laws meant for big security threats are sometimes used against people who disagree with the government.

This makes people feel less free, and it's like democracy is just going through the motions without the real spirit of fairness.
