This deep dive analyzes M. Laxmikanth's Chapter 3, defining the Constitution as the Grund Norm and Supreme Law of the land, while establishing the core philosophical principle of Constitutionalism and limited government. We explore its structure, the strategic choice of an enacted constitution for India, and how judicial review enforces state restraint through cases like Maneka Gandhi.
