Public Interest & Constitutional Matters

Championing fundamental rights and public welfare through constitutional advocacy

The Constitution of India guarantees fundamental rights and freedoms to every citizen, and public interest litigation (PIL) serves as a powerful tool to protect these rights when they are threatened or violated. Whether it's defending civil liberties, challenging unjust laws, or advocating for policy reform, Public Interest & Constitutional Litigation plays a vital role in shaping our democracy.

At LD Counsels, we represent individuals, communities, NGOs, and institutions in constitutional law matters and public interest cases before the Supreme Court, High Courts, and other constitutional forums. Our work spans a wide range of issues — from protecting the environment and advancing social justice to ensuring government accountability and upholding the rule of law.

We also handle writ petitions, constitutional challenges, and fundamental rights enforcement for both individuals and organisations, making sure that the principles enshrined in our Constitution are upheld in practice, not just on paper.
