| When Can A Public Interest Litigation Be Filed? |
|
|
A PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION can be filed only in a case where "Public Interest" at large is effected. Merely because, only one person is effected by state inaction is not a ground for PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION
These are some of the possible areas where a PUBLIC INTEREST LITIGATION can be filed.
- Where a factory / industrial unit is causing air pollution, and people nearly are getting effected.
- Where, in an area / street there are no street lights, causing inconvenience to commuters
- Where some "Banquet Hall" plays a loud music, in night causing noise pollution.
- Where some construction company is cutting down trees, causing environmental pollution.
- Where poor people, are affected, because of state government's arbitrary decision to impose heavy "tax".
- For directing the police / Jail authorities to take appropriate decisions in regards to jail reforms, such as segregation of convicts, delay in trial, production of under trial before the court on remand dates.
- For abolishing child labour, and bonded labour.
- Where rights of working women are affected by sexual harassment.
- For keeping a check on corruption and crime involving holders of high political officer.
- For maintaining Roads, Sewer etc in good conditions.
