yes of course, one gets the statutory right to defend one’s own case through Advocate Act in India. Every court has their rules which provides guideline for procedure implementation and these rules also talks about contending case without an advocate and you have to consider guidelines very well as well as depth knowledge of the facts along with the related Act and procedure. Good Luck!

There is no bar to a person representing his matter in the Court. But there are certain procedures of the Court which need to be complied with, and non compliance or laxity in approaching a matter can weaken your case. That's why it is advised to hire a lawyer to represent your case.
