| Abstract | The Constitution of India serves as a transformative framework aimed at securing political freedom and promoting social justice within a diverse society. Its designers intentionally embedded structural contradictions such as balancing equality with affirmative action, secularism with religious personal laws, and a federal system supported by central authority to maintain governance flexibility. These contradictions have become more pronounced with changing political, social, and technological landscapes. Key factors such as judicial interpretation, technological advances, declining public trust in representative institutions, and debates over constitutional morality have altered the dynamics of constitutional democracy. Particularly in the digital era, conflicts surrounding rights versus regulation, privacy against surveillance, and citizen sovereignty in relation to corporate influence have surfaced. This analysis argues that these constitutional contradictions exemplify a living constitution rather than indicating systemic flaws. However, if not addressed, they could undermine democratic legitimacy and social justice. The study emphasizes that the constitution's effectiveness relies not solely on institutional reform but also on fostering an informed and engaged citizenry. |
