         The current term PIL originated in the United States of America in the mid-1980s.          The 19th century witnessed a variety of movements that contributed to public interest law as part of the legal aid movement.
        This led to the establishment of the first legal aid office in New York in 1876 and in 1960 the movement started receiving financial support.
        Public interest litigation is a tool that allows a person who is concerned about the public interest to seize a case and represent the bereavement of disadvantaged persons before a tribunal.
