Property Value
dbo:abstract
  • The Supreme Court of India (Hindi: भारत का सर्वोच्च न्यायालय) is the highest judicial forum and the final court of appeal of India, established under the Constitution of India, according to which the Supreme Court is the highest constitutional court and acts as the guardian of the Constitution. India has an integrated and yet independent judiciary. Since independence, the judiciary has played a very active role in dispensing justice; beginning with the A. K. Gopalan v. State of Madras case (1950) and the Shankari Prasad case, etc. The judiciary remained submissive until the 1960s, with the modern trend of judicial activism beginning in 1973 when the Allahabad High Court rejected the candidature of Indira Gandhi in State of Uttar Pradesh v. Raj Narain. The introduction of public interest litigation by Justice V.R. Krishna Iyer further expanded its scope. (en)
