Our member Abhinav Chandrachud has authored a book 'An Independent Colonial Judiciary' which unravels the history of the Bombay High Court and explores its colonial past.
By examining the lives of the 83 judges—Britons and Indians—who served on the Bombay High Court during the colonial era, and by exploring the court's colonial past, this book attempts to understand why British colonial institutions like the Bombay High Court flourished even after India became independent. In the process, this book unravels the complex changes that took place in Indian society, the legal profession, the law, and legal culture during the colonial era
