Mediation is now widely viewed as an effective, economical, and mutually beneficial method for resolving disputes, Chief Justice of India Surya Kant said. He made these remarks during a symbolic ‘Mediation Awareness’ walk held near the Kala Academy in Panaji.
The High Court emphasized the need to address the societal implications of live-in relationships, stating, “It is high time we consider and establish a framework to uphold the moral values of society.” The court highlighted growing concerns over the impact of such relationships on traditional norms. It called for a collective effort to find solutions that balance individual freedoms with cultural ethics.
