Audi Alteram Partem Rule
Legal definition for Indian law research
Definition
Audi alteram partem rule, is not cast in a rigid mould and judicial decisions establish that it may suffer situational modifications. The core of it must, however, remain, namely, that the person affected must have a reasonable opportunity of being heard and the hearing must be a genuine hearing and not an empty public relations exercise, Chota Lal Mehta v. State of Rajasthan, AIR 1980 Raj 123.
