The main judge of India Sanjiv Khanna said on Wednesday (March 26, 2025) that Indian judiciary is unique because of direct connection with people.
“What makes the judiciary unique is our direct connection with people … The simplest approach that people have is access to the judiciary at any of the three institutions (legislators, executive and judiciary),” CJI said at the Supreme Court assignee the proprietor of the Association.
However, the judge of the Supreme Court, the judiciary as an eye, previously spoke to the same events, said that a often repeated claim that an ordinary person has a full faith in the judiciary may not be substantially correct.
The justice of the eye asked if this claim could be seriously made when 4.55 crore was held at the district courts, 25-30% of which were waiting for more than ten years.
“We can still believe that an ordinary person has faith in this institution … We have to recognize our shortcomings and shortcomings in our system,” the justice said.
Attorney General Tushar Mehta, also on this occasion, emphasized the need to indianize jurisprudence and build the law uniquely suitable for Indian conditions, character, temperament and social ethos rather than seek solutions here.
Mr. Mehta said that the law monuments should be trained to lead the lights closer to home. They weren’t given them. He said that the full width of the Indian legal heritage should be used in practice of law.
The general lawyer also pointed out that jurisprudence had to change with the advent of social media and technology.
“The rise of social media, artificial intelligence and technology, such as deep counterfeits, also represented concerns. Indian jurisprudence, which was shaped in the earlier era of mass media, especially printed media, will set out from the perspective of new regimes and methods of communication.
