Fair Hearing and Access to Justice

The essentiality of assuring a fair hearing lies at the core of all legislations, substantive or procedural. The administration of justice through the courts of law or any other quasi-judicial forum has to uphold the requirements of fair hearing as fundamental to the rule of law. The areas covered in this work include the due process of law in application, the right to privacy as against trial by media, human right issues, standards for reasonableness and also reflects on the process of investigation that excludes any hearing right. The treatment in all these fields is enriched by the judicial pronouncements in this country and abroad. The book is a must for all.
