Seminar on ‘Judicial Reforms: Backbone of a Real Democracy’

Report by Santanu Ganguly: In a genuine democracy of the people, by the people, for the people, government laws, rules and regulations ought to be implemented fairly. And, when there is miscarriage of justice, the legal system ought to restore the balance of equity in an affordable manner and within a reasonable time.

Unfortunately, for most ordinary people, approaching the judiciary is not a real option. While some pathbreaking judgments hold out a lot of hope, justice is usually delayed as well as denied, to the deserving. There is not only a huge backlog of cases but there are spiraling costs and increasing corruption.
