Lily Isabel Thomas (5 March 1928 – 10 December 2019)[4] was an Indian lawyer who initiated improvement and change to existing laws by filing petitions in India's apex court, the Supreme Court of India and regional courts.[5][6] Her petitions resulted in changes to laws to prevent convicted politicians getting elected,[7] the addition of a new marriage law[8] and protections for parliamentarians.[9] She was hailed most notably for petitioning to amend the Representation of the People Act, 1951.[10][11]
