rights.20

[1.4] PETITIONER PIL IS COGENT UNDER PUBLIC INTEREST:

14. To invoke the jurisdiction of the SC is not necessary that the fundamental right must
have been actually infringed- a threat to the same would be sufficient. 21 Applying the
doctrine of ‘reasonable apprehension’, this Hon’ble Court may interfere directly in the
said case. The most fundamental right of an individual is his right to life; if an
administrative decision may put his life at risk, the basis for the decision surely calls for
the most anxious scrutiny according to the principle of ‘anxious scrutiny’. 22 Thus, the
petitioned filed before this apex court is maintainable.

articulated the concept of PIL as follows, “Any
member of public can maintain an application for an appropriate direction, order of
writ in the High court under article 226 and in case any breach of fundamental
