Journal Title: Indian Journal of Law and Human Behavior - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

Judiciary in India has always played a laudable role in eradicating social evils, and to bring social justice to masses. The Supreme Court of India has devised various ways like epistolary jurisdiction, relaxing locus standi principle, allowing public interest litigation and has played pro-active role for bringing justice to every doorstep. Through various cases, several guidelines have been provided by the Apex Court to curb corruption. This paper discusses the important judgments of the Supreme Court relating to corruption and the related aspects.
