Question

Analyse the concept devised by the Supreme Court to provide justice to the poor

and illiterate Indians.​

Answer 1

Answer:

India had to wait till 1986 when the then chief justice P.N. Bhagwati introduced public interest litigation (PIL) to the Indian judicial system. The original idea was to give marginalised citizens access to justice, but by the mid-1990s PILs had transformed the legal landscape with a flurry of high-profile cases.
