Delivering the inaugural Justice SB Sinha Memorial Lecture on 'Life of a Judge', CJI NV Ramana said judges spend sleepless nights rethinking their decisions.
False narratives about the supposed easy lives of judges and misconception of their ultimate comfort is hard to digest, Chief Justice of India (CJI) NV Ramana said on Saturday.
Delivering the inaugural Justice SB Sinha Memorial Lecture on 'Life of a Judge', CJI NV Ramana said judges spend sleepless nights rethinking their decisions.
"There exists a misconception in the minds of the people that judges stay in ultimate comfort, work only from 10 am to 4 pm and enjoy their holidays. Such a narrative is untrue... when false narratives are created about the supposed easy life led by judges, it is difficult to swallow," he said.
The responsibility of judging is extremely burdensome owing to the human implication of the rulings, he added.
