how can justice be made accessible to marginalized groups of people?
Justice can be made accessible to marginalised groups through the following:
a. Our Constitution first establishes legal and political equality by virtue of Fundamental rights
b. Our Fundamental rights itself ensures that if rights are violated one can approach the court.
c. Most importantly, The Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes (Prevention of Atrocities) Act, 1989 allows the marginalised groups to file their complaint under this act which includes atrocities, crime or any act of humiliation against the SC's or ST's. The act is very broad and comprehensive and seeks to offer protection to the marginalised groups.
d. The act ensures protection of minorities and seeks to provide justice to them.
e. Similarly, The central government passed the Scheduled Tribes and Other Traditional Forest Dwellers (Recognition of Forest Rights) Act, 2006 which safeguards the rights of the forest dwellers.
f. The introduction of Public Interest Litigation has also allowed poor, marginalised group to get justice.
