Abstract

Denial of access to justice to the economically disadvantaged persons was a matter of serious concern not only for the administrators of law and justice but also for legislators and the executives. The matter was therefore referred to the Law Commission to suggest measures which may ensure access to justice for every member of the society and no one is deprived of this right by reason of paucity of funds or economic resources. Article 39A – “The State shall secure that the operation of the legal system promotes justice, on a basis of equal opportunity, and shall, in particular, provide free legal aid, by suitable legislation or schemes or in any other way, to ensure that opportunities for securing justice are not denied to any citizen by reason of economic or other disabilities.”
