“This book opens like a treasure hunt and an invitation to discover the world of our foundational values – the Constitution of India. Bringing it alive through engaging bite sized facts and unbundles complex concepts of the essence of the Constitution in a fun way. The thoughtful design makes it feel like a personal diary – my interactive personal Constitution. I had fun with it and I am sure it will bring meaningful engaging moments on an important conversation for parents and children alike” – Deepika Mogilishetty, Chief of Policy & Partnerships – EkStep Foundation
It is critical that young Indians see the principles outlined in our Constitution as not mere words but living, breathing workable ideals of equality and justice. This book is an attempt to do that.
