Abstract

In the late 1970s, the concept of public interest litigation (PIL) emerged in India. Prisoners, bound workers, and previously ignored groups and causes finally had their day in court. Some Supreme Court and High Court justices simplified the legal process by using their authority under Articles 32 and 226 of the Constitution. Petitioning on behalf of individuals who are unable to do so themselves or for matters of great public concern was open to anybody acting in the public interest. Prosecutors, activists, concerned citizens, and even judges petitioned the judicial system. Other procedural standards, such as the need to submit a formal petition, were loosened along with locus standi. As soon as fault was accepted, efforts were made to settle lawsuits via a more amicable form of justice.
