On paper, India remains the world’s largest democracy. In practice, the experience of one citizen, Dr Rahul Vasudevbhai Vyas, raises hard questions about whether our institutions still embody the constitutional values they proclaim.

His journey — from the Gujarat High Court to the Supreme Court of India, and finally into the maze of registry procedures and unanswered
