Family Law Lectures: Family Law II (5th Edition) by Dr. Poonam Pradhan Saxena provides an authoritative and comprehensive exposition of the personal laws governing non-Hindu communities in India, with a focus on Muslim, Christian, Parsi, and secular family law frameworks. Written in a structured and student-friendly format, this volume explains the statutory provisions, doctrinal foundations, and judicial developments shaping contemporary family law beyond the Hindu legal system.
The book covers essential themes including marriage and dissolution under various personal laws, maintenance, legitimacy, guardianship, succession within family structures, conversion and its legal effects, domestic violence, and secular remedies under the Special Marriage Act, 1954. Updated with significant Supreme Court and High Court rulings, the text also incorporates constitutional principles of equality, religious freedom, and personal autonomy, reflecting evolving debates on uniformity and reform.
Ideal for academic study and examination preparation, this edition remains an indispensable resource for LL.B and LL.M students, judicial service aspirants, legal educators, and practitioners engaging with comparative and multi-religious aspects of Indian family law.
