Albert Einstein once said in relation to justice that, “in matters of truth and justice, there is no difference
between large and small problems, for issues concerning the treatment of people are all the same”. The
Preamble of the constitution of India states that,“We, the People of India having solemnly resolved to
constitute India into a Sovereign, Socialist, Secular, Democratic, Republic and to secure to all its citizens;
Justice, social, economic, political;Liberty of thought, expression, belief, faith and worship;Equality of
status and opportunity; and to promote among them all;Fraternity, assuring the dignity of the individual
and the unity and integrity of the nation.” But still after so many years of Independence we have several
rules, regulations and mechanisms but those are not adequate to give justice. The establishing father of our
constitution placed Justice at the highest level and India is considered to be the largest democracy still we
are not getting fair justice. It is a still remain a demand and need to be resolved soon.
