Non Constitutional Bodies of India  (English, Paperback, Raunak Chaturvedi)

Federalism means that authorities originating in and controlled by the Constitution of India are existent in a sphere coordinate and there is a division of power between them and they are independent in their respective domains. But, the biggest question that arises is that then what about the bodies which are not originating from the Constitution? How do they exist? What is their structure? What are their powers, functions, jurisdiction and composition? How are these so-called non-constitutional or extra-constitutional bodies different from the Constitutional bodies? We shall also see what had been the significance of these non-constitutional bodies in the development of India. India being a developing nation, the various bodies have played an important role in the making of the nation. Where social evils like untouchability, trafficking, child marriage prevailed even after so many years of Independence, the various non-constitutional bodies such as the Human Rights Commissions, Central Bureau of Investigation, etc. had played and are even playing an important role in maintaining the decorum of the nation. Being a research-based book, the statements made are completely based upon my understanding of the topic. The views may vary. But, through this research, we will have an analysis of these bodies and understand their roles in our democracy. We will look into their backgrounds, compositions, functions, jurisdictions (if applicable) and significance in the development.
