- Synopsis
- The book History of Courts, Legislatures and Legal Profession in India by Dr. S. R. Myneni provides a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of India’s judicial, legislative, and legal systems from ancient times through British rule to modern India. It explores the establishment and development of courts under the East India Company and the Crown, tracing reforms such as the Regulating Act of 1773, the judicial plans of Warren Hastings and Cornwallis, and the creation of Mayor’s Courts and High Courts. The text also delves into legislative milestones, including the Indian Councils Acts, the Government of India Acts, and the constitutional framework of 1950. Furthermore, it examines the legal profession’s growth from informal beginnings in pre-British India to an organized bar under British influence, alongside the evolution of law reporting. Written in simple language to suit undergraduate law students, the book emphasizes the interplay of British legal principles and Indian traditions in shaping modern governance and justice in India.
