Judicial System, Enforcement system of Judiciary in India, Quality of Justice, Ancient Judicial SystemAbstract
India has the highest law in the world. There is no other form of judgment with an individual or higher. But before describing the judiciary system in ancient India I have to give a warning. The learner should reject the major allegations of the Jurisprudence of India as well as the Indian law enforcement system by some British writers. I will make a few examples. Henry Maine described the ancient Indian legal system as "a tool for evil". The Anglo-Indian lawyer called this “Indian life” practices before Britain came back to India: “It (British rule in India) is a survey of foreign directors to oversee foreign sectors, to align Europe's Oriental cultural practices, and to formulate specific laws. The highest among the ruthless nations associated with the government for empty authorities1. ”Alan Gledhill, a retired member of the Indian Civil Service, wrote that when Britain took power in India," there was a breakdown of legal laws.
