Abstract
This dissertation adopts a doctrinal and qualitative research approach to examine the relationship between constitutionalism, feminine justice, reproductive rights, and bodily autonomy in India. The study is primarily based on secondary sources and involves an in-depth analysis of legal, constitutional, and scholarly materials. The research refers to important international conventions and consensus documents, as these instruments provide valuable insights into the global recognition of women's reproductive freedom and bodily integrity. At the national level, the study analyses the Constitution of India, relevant statutes, and significant judicial decisions that have shaped the legal understanding of reproductive rights, privacy, dignity, equality, and personal autonomy. The research also draws upon books, journal articles, research papers, reports, and writings of constitutional scholars and feminist thinkers to explore the theoretical and practical dimensions of the subject.
