Legal System in India

India's legal system is a mix of statutes, judicial decisions, and customary laws, primarily based on common law traditions inherited from the British colonial period. It includes a hierarchy of courts, with the Supreme Court at the top, followed by High Courts, and subordinate courts such as District and Sessions Courts. Laws are made by Parliament and state legislatures, while courts interpret and uphold these laws. The system ensures justice through civil, criminal, and constitutional cases, maintaining legal rights, resolving disputes, and safeguarding fundamental rights guaranteed by the Constitution.
