On the evening of the 19th of December, Dr. Tarunabh Khaitan,  Associate Professor in Law at Wadham College, Oxford, will be delivering a talk titled “Securing Dissenters’ Consent for India’s Constitution: The Role of Directive Principles“.  A copy of the draft article on which the talk is based is available for download here.

Using India as a case study, Dr. Khaitan’s paper on the issue argues that Directive Principles can be a key tool to secure the consent of groups that would otherwise lose out in constitutional negotiations. The talk is scheduled on Monday, 19th December, 2016 at 6.00 p.m at the Vidhi Centre for Legal Policy, D-359, Lower Ground Floor, Defence Colony, New Delhi. The talk will also be streamed via Facebook Live.
