Question

British judicial system in india structure​

Answer 1

The Judicial System in India was neither adopted proper procedures nor had the proper organisation of the law court from the ancient India to Mughal India. The process of litigation in Hindu was served either by the caste elder or village Panchayats or zamindars whereas for Muslim Qazi supervise the litigation issues. If there were a discrepancy, the Rajas and Badshahs were considered as the fountainhead of the justice.

The beginning of Indian codified common law is traced back to 1726 when a Mayor’s Court in Madras, Bombay and Calcutta was established by the East India Company. This was the first sign of Company’s transformation from a trading company to a ruling power with the added flavour of new elements of the Judiciary.
