Dharma is on the verge of destruction. Yet it influences our
mainly based upon
judicial thoughts. Today Indian laws are
British judiciary system. All those who are related to judicial
system such as judges, advocates, legislative members, etc are the
fans of British judicial system rooted in India¹³.
The fundamental structure of judicial system is illustrated
in the constitution. The history of Indian judicial system can be
studied only after understanding the present and the past status of
laws. The judicial system that prevailed in Kerala before
independence was of various forms in each province. This
variation was based on religion, caste, region and individual rights.
The salvation of social justice lies upon the freedom of judicial
system. In the Indian constitution, courts are the custodian of
fundamental rights and safeguards laws and justice; however the
supreme status rests with the judge.
