Living Legally: Short Stories Based Upon the Indian Court System
About this ebook
In this book, we write a few stories illustrating different aspects of the Indian court system, how it affects the common people in different situations of life. One of the stories is interpreting the timeless Indian epic, the Mahabharata, as a dispute fought in the Indian courts.
None of these stories are real, any similarity with persons living or dead is purely a matter of coincidence.
Our aim is to present the Indian court system from different viewpoints, and thus help the reader to gain an appreciation of the experience of different aspects of the court system for the common man. At the end of each story, we have added a section on lessons to learn from that story.
The intention is to show how the common man can succeed in getting justice if they persevere, even if the process is slow and fraught with difficulties.
