CJI Calls for Judiciary to Embrace Scrutiny to Regain Public Trust

In a bold statement, Chief Justice of India (CJI) has asserted that the judiciary cannot expect public trust while distancing itself from scrutiny. He highlighted that a court must be open to examination, questioning, and, when necessary, criticism to foster confidence among citizens. This call for transparency raises critical questions: How can the judiciary ensure accountability to the people? What measures will be implemented to facilitate public engagement and oversight? As reported by The Hindu, the CJI's remarks are a crucial reminder that an independent judiciary must also be a transparent one, willing to confront its challenges openly.
