Description
What happens when divinity enters the docket? Case for Ram takes readers deep into the courtroom where faith, law and history collided. Chronicling the Ram Janmabhoomi legal battle in the Supreme Court, this behind-the-scenes account reveals how Lord Ram came to be represented as a legal person-and how a 92-year-old legal titan, K. Parasaran, led a team through one of the most complex and emotionally charged trials in Indian history.
From legal strategy sessions and dramatic cross-examinations to centuries-old evidence and internal conflicts among Hindu litigants, this book brings alive the intricate workings of a case that shaped the national psyche. Rich with legal insight, cultural resonance and historical depth, Case for Ram is both a meticulous record and a compelling narrative of a once-in-history spiritual and civilizational reckoning.
