India that is Bharat by J. Sai Deepak | Coloniality and Constitution Book, Indian Civilisation History, Political Bestseller

Genre: History, Politics, Indian Constitutional Studies

Description:
India That Is Bharat by J. Sai Deepak is a deeply researched and thought-provoking exploration of India’s constitutional identity. The book examines how colonial ideologies have influenced modern India’s legal and political frameworks, often distancing the nation from its civilizational roots. Deepak delves into the concept of "coloniality" the cultural and intellectual remnants of colonialism and how these ideas continue to shape Indian institutions, education, and self-perception. He argues that the Indian Constitution, while secular and democratic, was crafted through a lens influenced heavily by Western thought, overlooking the native traditions and philosophical ethos of Bharat. Blending history, political theory, and constitutional law, Deepak presents a compelling case for re-evaluating India’s foundational assumptions. This book is essential reading for students, thinkers, and citizens who wish to understand India's identity crisis in a post-colonial world. India That Is Bharat is not just a historical critique but a call to reclaim India’s civilizational narrative with intellectual clarity and cultural confidence.
