This panel explores the law relating to citizenship which discusses the provisions of the recent Citizenship Amendment Act, the provisions of the Rules to create a National Population Register and National Register of Indian Citizens, in the context of the Constitution. This also discusses how people on the ground are being affected by the rhetoric over “foreigners” and what an acceptable refugee law might actually look like. The purpose of this discussion is to not only critique the law and the changes made to it but also to question some unstated assumptions about “citizenship” and migration in India to help further a better understanding of these issues.

'While Babasaheb Ambedkar is seen as the ‘Father of the Constitution’, what were his key contributions to the text of the Constitution of seminal relevance today? Arvind Narrain will present some of the jurisprudential contributions of Babasaheb Ambedkar to the Constitution of India of great contemporary relevance, namely the concepts of equality, dignity, fraternity and constitutional morality.'
