The Law of Perpetuities in British India

The Law of Perpetuities in British India by Asutosh Mukhopadhyay is a legal treatise that examines the application of the rule against perpetuities within the context of British Indian law. The book analyzes how this complex principle—intended to prevent indefinite control over property—interacts with Indian customs, statutes, and judicial interpretations. Mukhopadhyay provides detailed commentary, case law references, and comparative insights, making it a significant contribution to colonial legal scholarship and property law in India.
