Heyya!

Public litigation system or public interest litigation is litigation for public interest i.e., it is a case filed in the interest of the public by a representative of the public. PIL was started to protect the fundamental rights of people who are poor, ignorant or in socially/economically disadvantaged position. It is different from ordinary litigation, in that it is not filed by one private person against another for the enforcement of a personal right. The presence of 'public interest' is important to file a PIL. The first reported case of PIL in 1979 focused on the inhuman conditions of prisons and under trial prisoners.

Hope it helps! : )

Hey.

PIL stands for Public Interest Litigation.

Public Interest Litigation is directly filed by an individual or group of people in the supreme court. It was felt that their interests are undermined by the government.In such a situation, the court directly accepts the public good.

Thanks.
