New Delhi, April 27:
Aakiriti Shantiniketan became the epicenter of legal awakening yesterday as Dr. Ajay Kummar Pandey, Supreme Court Advocate and activist-author, launched his much-anticipated book Property Law Unveiled.
This wasn't just another book launch — it was a full-blown civic revolution, blending scholarly passion, fiery debate, and an urgent call for legal literacy across the country.
The book, published by Vital Vishwa Publications, was officially released by the distinguished Sada Shiv Bajpai, a retired IRS stalwart with decades of experience in enforcement, intelligence, and governance. The ceremony was graced by an elite gathering of residents, legal professionals, Allahabad University alumni, corporate leaders, journalists, and a vibrant community of well-wishers.
Law for the Masses: Sada Shiv Bajpai’s Power Speech
In a rousing keynote address, Sada Shiv Bajpai praised Dr. Pandey for "demystifying the intimidating labyrinth of property law" and placing power directly into the hands of everyday citizens.
He commended the book's fearless use of real-world case studies — from bulldozing houses under Yogi Adityanath’s regime to posing sharp questions like: “Should a son-in-law pay for his father-in-law’s debts?”
In a passionate appeal, Bajpai encouraged Dr. Pandey to next tackle the Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) — an area where unsuspecting citizens often become collateral damage amid financial scams and administrative overreach.
A Poetic Start: Banking Meets Literature
Setting the emotional tone of the evening, Rajeev Raman, senior banker at the State Bank of India, opened with soulful recitations of Urdu and Hindi poetry, bridging the cultural heritage with contemporary legal anxieties.
He vividly narrated real-life banking horror stories where innocent property owners were trapped in frauds, reinforcing the urgent need for legal literacy — a cause to which Property Law Unveiled, is now firmly devoted.
Property Law As the New Survival Skill
CS Bipin Sharma, a dynamic figure in microfinance and fintech, emphasized the book’s critical timing:
"With property disputes on the rise and scams multiplying, understanding property law is no longer optional. It's survival," he said.
G.K. Nanda, veteran management expert and business leader, called the book nothing less than a Bible for property ownership in India.
"Over three crore property cases are stuck in Indian courts because we, as a society, failed to educate ourselves legally," Nanda stressed.
Media Veterans Weigh In
Sachin Budhauliya, a seasoned journalist, brought a personal touch, recounting his 23-year professional relationship with Dr. Pandey.
"Whether as a firebrand journalist at Navbharat and Central Chronicle or as a political voice for the Lok Janshakti Party, Dr. Pandey has always been the people's advocate," he said.

Young Talent: Anant Pandey Steals Hearts
14-year-old Master Anant Pandey, student of Alchon International School, won massive applause for his confident compering, maintaining a steady flow throughout the evening.
Later, he was felicitated by Bajpai and Nanda, for his impeccable hosting, making it clear that the future is bright with young orators like him on the rise.
Law Steps Out of Courtrooms: Advocate Naushad Khan's Vision
Advocate Naushad Khan, President of ASN Society, eloquently stated,
"Tonight, law has left the cold corridors of the courts and entered the warm living rooms of citizens."
This sentiment perfectly captured the evening’s revolutionary spirit — that the law is not just for lawyers but for every Indian who dares to claim their rights.
Dr. Pandey's Hard-Hitting Speech: No Mercy for Judicial Delay
Dr. Pandey’s address pulled no punches.
He pointed out the gross inconsistencies where courts enforce strict deadlines on Governors and Presidents, yet drag their own judgments for decades without consequence.
He cited cases from Jharkhand High Court and the Supreme Court, highlighting how rampant judicial delay is not a minor issue but a death knell for true justice.
"Justice is either immediate or it's not justice at all," Dr. Pandey declared, electrifying the room.
He also blasted the fact that, despite a 2005 Supreme Court ruling, daughters continue to be denied property rights across many parts of India. Bulldozing of alleged criminal homes without following legal due process under certain state governments also came under his fierce criticism.
Real-Life Lessons: Dr. Mala Saini’s Vote of Thanks
Wrapping the evening, Dr. Mala Saini, a seasoned academic and entrepreneur, spoke from painful personal experience.
Despite belonging to a lineage of prominent advocates and solicitors, her own family faced devastating property loss due to poor estate planning and will-making.
Her emotional plea to the audience was simple yet powerful:
"Please — if you do nothing else today, start the paperwork to protect your family's property."
Public Frenzy: Book Sales Break Records
As soon as the formalities ended, the book sale counter saw a near-stampede, with readers queuing for signed copies from Dr. Pandey at the special discounted launch-day price.

A Community Awakens: The ASN Spirit
The spirit of the evening went far beyond books and speeches. It signaled a community awakening — one where citizens, not bureaucrats or politicians, take charge of their legal literacy and civic responsibilities.
A movement was born at ASN that night, with many expressing their desire for more such symposiums, debates, and workshops in the future.
