PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION

PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION

“Public interest Litigation”, in simple words, means, litigation filed in a court of law, for the protection of “Public Interest”, such as pollution, Terrorism, Road safety, constructional hazards etc. In Indian law, PIL means litigation for the protection of public interest. It is litigation introduced in a court of law, not by the aggrieved party but by the court itself or by any other private party. It is not necessary, for the exercise of the court’s jurisdiction, that the person who is the victim of the violation of his or her right should personally approach the court. Public Interest Litigation is the power given to the public by courts through judicial activism. With the media becoming a prominent force in the current times, Public Interest litigations are all the more powerful as they represent the voice of the public against injustice. At Ligamine, our attorneys are well experienced of handling such cases and they assure that clients attain justice without wasting their precious time.
