About the event
This screening was followed by a deeper discussion with Vinay K. Srinivasan, Advocate and Member, Alternative Law Forum(ALF) focusing on Constitutional literacy, urban governance, urban transport and informal sector livelihoods. In relation to federalism, we can look at how he bridges the gap between the Samvidhaan episode and modern legal challenges. While the episode showcases the framing of these laws, Srinivasan’s talks typically focus on the lived experience of these laws.
