Perspective: Indianisation of Judiciary

In this episode of the Perspective based on Indianisation of Judiciary. India has the oldest judiciary system in the world. Our legal and judicial history dates back to 5000 years. In fact no other judicial system has a more ancient and acclaimed pedigree like Bharat-Varsh. Chief Justice of India N V Ramana has called the Indianisation of the country's legal system the need of the hour. He also said it is crucial to make the justice delivery system more accessible and effective. According to the CJI, courts need to be litigant-centric while simplification of justice delivery should be the pressing concern. He says and I quote: "Very often our justice delivery poses many barriers for the common people. The working and the style of courts do not sit well with the complexities of India. Our systems, practice, rules being colonial in origin, it may not be best suited to the needs of the Indian population," The CJI clarified that by Indianisation, he means the localization of the justice delivery system.
