India's political and legal culture has been greatly shaped by transformational constitutionalism and judicial activism. To ensure justice, equality, and fundamental rights, judicial activism provides the courts with the power to interpret the Constitution in a dynamic and progressive manner. This book analyzes the evolution of judicial activism in India, with a focus on landmark judgments by the Supreme Court that have served to promote social justice and constitutional morality. The concept of transformative constitutionalism highlights the principle that laws continually need to adjust to address emergent sociopolitical challenges. The Supreme Court has played an important role in upholding the rights-based framework of law, protecting marginalized segments, and furthering democracy via judicial intervention. The article continues to analyze how transformative constitutionalism and judicial activism have worked together in upholding constitutional ideals, adapting to changing social needs, and maintaining the equilibrium of power in the Indian legal system
