Advocate Bhartesh goyal (Expert) 11 December 2022
PIL can be filed by any citizen of country whose reghts are affected by the orders of Govt.

It is neither necessary nor compulsory to file a PIL by or through a lawyer.
However, it would be better to engage a prudent lawyer as it involves many technicalities where an ordinary litigant may have to suffer / withdraw or get cost imposed.
What is the subject matter concerning general public where you do not have any personal interest?

Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 11 December 2022
yes

What are the facts? What is the context?

Sudhir Kumar, Advocate (Expert) 21 December 2022
For filing PIL you personally should be disinterested in the subject matter or at the most benefited as part of society.
