Subject: Polity
Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
A legal innovation allowing any public-spirited individual or organization to file cases for societal welfare, especially addressing the voiceless. It led to pathbreaking reforms in environmental protection, human rights, and governance. PIL expanded the concept of “locus standi,” enabling courts to inquire into executive inaction. While it democratized access to justice, concerns rose about frivolous litigations clogging courts. Nonetheless, PIL remains vital for exposing corruption, safeguarding environmental concerns (like river pollution), and implementing directive principles on socio-economic justice. Its success depends on judicial vigilance and genuine petitions aimed at public good rather than personal vendettas.
