\nGranville Austin, a renowned American historian of the Indian Constitution, conceptualized the Constitution of India as a ‘seamless web’.

\nAustin used this term in his seminal work, “The Indian Constitution: Cornerstone of a Nation,” to describe the interconnectedness of the Constitution’s various parts, particularly the Fundamental Rights and the Directive Principles of State Policy.
