The trial of Raja Nand Kumar is an example of how arbitrary and capricious the justice of administration was in British India.  

• This trial is popularly known as the judicial murder of Raja Nand Kumar.  

• This is a historically significant trial because later on this trial became a major ground for the impeachment of Governor General Warren Hastings and Chief Justice Impey of the Supreme Court of Calcutta, by the House of Commons, after they returned to England.
