contents This case decision is a deal in India law. This decision was made in 1979. It showed that the criminal justice system in India has a lot of problems. The system was not treating people who were waiting for their trials fairly. The Supreme Court made a change with this case. They said that people have the right to trial. The Supreme Court decided that the right to a trial is a part of the right to life and personal liberty as stated in article 21 of the constitution of India. The Hussainara Khatoon v. state of Bihar Decision is important because it changed the way Indian law works towards under trial prisoner. This case is very important because of what it means for the law and for the country. It is not about the law but also about how people can use the law to fight for what is right. Public interest litigation or PIL for short is a way for people to stand up for themselves and for others who cannot take initiative and fight for justice. This case should have been poor, not being able to read or write and having enough knowledge about law and people in charge who do not care can all come together to cause problems for people's basic legal rights. This is especially true for people who do not have the power or the money or knowledge to speak for themselves public interest litigation is a tool that can help a group or community of people who lacks knowledge of law or does not have that amount of money to go and file a plea in court and sue the other person for infringing its legal rights
