"In the moments of imbalance, we are unlikely to find solutions in very complicated theoretical statements of the law or policy," Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud said
Legal power is not enough for a judge for whom the stronger tool is their desire to understand human life and people's problems, Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud said on Wednesday at an event organised by the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA).
Newly-appointed judges Justices Satish Chandra Sharma, Augustine George Masih, Sandeep Mehta, and Prasanna B Varale were welcomed at the event. Chief Justice Chandrachud said that with their elevation, the Supreme Court is once again working at its maximum mandated strength of 34 judges.
Chief Justice Chandrachud also recited lines from a ghazal by the legendary Jagjit Singh.
