This is in keeping with their goal to spread awareness of all aspects of Constitutional Law, and its intersection with other fields of study. 
  • This month, submissions are invited on the theme- Principles of Constitutional Democracy and Indian Elections.

Further Details

Elections in India function as the reins that bind the spirit of democracy, and as citizens, we must keep the reins as taut as possible. Election Laws in India have evolved over the years, with the Election Commission(s) carefully constructing regulations for elections, to fulfill the promise of free and fair elections. 

The world’s largest and most eclectic democracy cannot afford to compromise on a robust and efficient electoral mechanism. Thus, there arises the need for a  thorough understanding of the existing system, its merits and demerits, and possibilities for improvement. It is with this motive that the Constitutional Law Society, TNNLU has decided to explore the system of elections in this theme.
