Durga Das Basu Commentary on the Constitution of India (Volume 7)

.........................................................................................................................
Description
We recall with grateful thanks the overwhelming support and patronage that our publications receive at the hands of the people in the Law field. This has clearly vindicated our class as publishers. And why not! We are no novice in the field. More than fifty seven years of hard work in the lines has built up that experience and expertise and landed us that rare insight into the publishing art, of which we are legitimately proud.People now look to our banner as the hall mark of standard, quality and dependability and are ever confident that the stuff that would roll out from this publishing house would stand out as prestigious and different from the routine or the run-of-the mill product. We, too, to hold our own in this day-by-day growing competitive field, are always out to bring the popular works of reputed authors under our ever-widening umbrella and, believe us, like the blood hounds, we have the sensitiveness to smell the best works carved out a place for ourselves as publishers in the eyes of our patrons that they look to us every time with new hopes and expectations. On our part, we are consistently busy bettering and furthering our own records. We claim no Mida’s touch in enhancing the glory of the reputed works that are entrusted to our care and supervision. We attribute it to our skill, experience and expertise picked up through five long decades of our dedicated involvement in the field. This has helped us all along and with this, we are determined to scale new heights and achieve new milestones.
