The Supreme Court of India emphasised that lawyers must disclose both favourable and unfavourable judgments before courts, observing that contradictory rulings create uncertainty and stressing advocates’ duty to ensure judicial consistency by informing courts about relevant and latest legal pronouncements across jurisdictions.
Former CJI Justice U.U. Lalit urged students at CHRIST University Pune Lavasa Campus to value litigation over corporate law for long-term growth. He said early effort brings rising rewards and concluded that “Beyond that, the sky is the limit.”
CJI Surya Kant said it is worrying that a large number of law graduates are choosing corporate jobs over court practice. He urged students to gain real courtroom experience and contribute to the Bar and Bench.
The Supreme Court Bench led by CJI Gavai highlighted the need for discipline in arguments, cautioning against rushed submissions. Justice Narasimha advised younger lawyers to return to the “old-school” habit of reading judgments completely.
