She said LinkedIn often shows exaggerated achievements, reminding young lawyers that progress is not linear and today’s efforts may bring unexpected success in the future.
Chief Justice of India Surya Kant urged young lawyers to see law not as a quick route to success but as a disciplined craft requiring patience and integrity, saying it will test them before offering any meaningful reward.
Justice B.R. Gavai criticized the Supreme Court for its lack of discipline, calling it “the most undisciplined court” compared to the organized High Courts.
