Chief Justice of India Surya Kant said Supreme Court judgments are being translated into 16 languages to make justice accessible to common people. Speaking in Etawah, he stressed that language shapes culture, thinking and is a nation’s true heritage.
Justice Pankaj Mittal advocates for the “Indianisation” of justice, proposing that Lady Justice’s statue holds the Gita, Vedas, and Puranas alongside the Constitution. This reflects a shift towards Indian identity, emphasizing recent judicial changes like translations of judgments and the reimagining of symbols. Legal education, he notes, should foster empathy and creativity.
