Our next faculty seminar will be held on the topic ‘A Life of Contradictions: Group Inequality and Socio-Economic Rights in the Indian Constitution’ on May 4, 2022.

Speaker:

Dr. Aparna Chandra, Associate Professor of Law, NLSIU

 Excerpt:

A time in the future where the structures of oppression and domination have been dismantled, systemic patterns of discrimination and disadvantage no longer exist, material deprivations have been redressed, and people assert identities that they value without fear of reprisal.
