Description
The right Hindi word for every legal term
Whether you draft in Hindi, argue in a Hindi-medium court, translate judgments or prepare for judiciary and law exams in Hindi, you need the correct legal term, not a loose translation. This glossary gives the standard Hindi term used in official Hindi texts of Indian laws, with a short meaning or usage note in Hindi and, where useful, the section number under the current law.
