It’s devastating to witness how a few bad apples in India are treating our doctors—the very people who dedicate their lives to saving ours. Recent horrific incidents, including the rape and murder of a doctor, expose the depths of cruelty that some are capable of. What’s even more appalling is the silence from the authorities. Our doctors deserve far better—they deserve our utmost respect, protection, and gratitude. It’s time to stand up against this abuse and ensure that those who heal us are treated with the dignity they deserve. India doesn’t lack laws; what we lack is effective enforcement. Laws often remain mere words on paper because of weak implementation. We must instill a genuine fear of punishment in those who choose to break the law. Those who mistreat women, in particular, should face the harshest penalties available. Justice must be swift and unwavering to protect the dignity and safety of every woman in our society

Rape is all too common in India, and justice is just as elusive. There is a societal expectation for rape victims to report sexual violence as soon as it occurs, and any delay is criticised and used against them. Our criminal justice system, however, does not make reporting easy. In fact, victim-blaming and shaming, harassment by police and medical professionals, hostility and exploitation are routine experiences for those that choose to approach the authorities. And many are scared into submission. Ironically, some hospitals deny treatment to rape victims if do not file an FIR, which is not a mandatory requirement to receive medical care. Courts, too, take the slow road, delaying justice and prolonging the suffering. As a result, rape victims continue to be re-traumatised by the same system that is designed to protect them. To bring about real change, our advocacy must extend beyond legal reform and enacting better, more comprehensive laws. We need a complete overhaul of the justice delivery system and the key institutions that it encompasses. #BharatiyaNyayaSanhita #BNS #RapeLaws #LegalReform #india

𝐔𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐞: 𝐄𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐕𝐢𝐨𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐀𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐖𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧. However, I find this sad case where a 31-year-old student doctor was savagely raped and murdered at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in Kolkata to be deeply disturbing. The hospital authorities initially claimed that she had committed suicide, however the postmortem report revealed the shocking truth of sexual assault and torture. The family in mourning were made to wait for hours before seeing her body only to discover how much she had suffered. This incident shows the urgent need for better protection of doctors and stronger mechanisms of holding culprits responsible. To ensure such abominable acts are not repeated again, we should unite as citizens and fight for this young doctor’s justice. These ongoing protests demanding central law to preserve medical practitioners have to be supported. Justice has to win.

Many district courts in most states in India lack adequate facilities. Judges and court staff often do not have access to basic amenities such as toilets and washrooms. Proper infrastructure needs to be developed to ensure better administration of justice in all courts. I pointed this out in my welcome speech for the Honorable Chief Justice of India, Justice D.Y. Chandrachud. #court #law #justice #judge

"Esteemed colleagues" In our quest for justice,let us pause to ponder: Are our district courts, the heart and sole of our justice system, adorned with basic amenities befitting their noble stature? Do our learned lawyers and judges wield the digital tools necessary to navigate the labyrinth of law in this era of technological advancements?? Imagine a realme where the digital echelons of justice reverberate every across the country of our nation, where the wheel of justice turn seamlessly, irrespective of geographical boundaries. Can we not envision a judiciary where the roots of justice run deep, ensuring equitable access to all?? A judge sitting in a lower courts haven't any amenities like air conditioned room or even in some places of our country cold water is not easily available in lower courts. In the lower courts learned advocates sitting under the tin shed continually 5 to 6 hrs in the summer time for providing justice to the layman. They haven't any amenities of cooler or cold water. This is the condition of some lower courts of our country. Now our CJI also marked that in this decade even after the so many years of independence we need to develop a proper infrastructure in our lower court to provide a proper justice to layman and advocates can easily avail himself even in summer season. I fervently hope that the conditions of lower courts spoken by our CJI would be develop.. 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳

National Mission for justice delivery and Legal Reforms was set up in August, 2011 with the twin objectives of increasing access by reducing delays and arrears in the system and enhancing accountability through structural changes and by setting performance standards and capacities. Infrastructure Development for the Subordinate Judiciary is a major programme under the National Mission of Justice Delivery and Legal Reforms. Presently, the fund sharing pattern of the Scheme is 90:10 (Centre: State) for the 8 North-Eastern and 3 Himalayan States and 60:40 for remaining States. Adequacy of Judicial Infrastructure is a pre-requisite for reduction of pendency and backlog of cases in Courts. Though primary responsibility of infrastructure development for the subordinate judiciary rests with the State Governments, the Central Government augments the resources of the State Governments by releasing financial assistance under this Scheme. The scheme aims at improving the physical infrastructure of the Subordinate Courts and also the housing needs for Judicial Officers of District and Subordinate Courts in the country with a view to facilitate better justice delivery. The scheme covers all States and UTs and it does not cover construction of High Court buildings. The scheme allows new construction and upgradation or renovation of such existing court buildings but does not allow routine maintenance or upkeep. The central assistance to States/UTs is restricted to the budgetary provision of the Department of Justice available under the scheme during the financial year. However, States/UTs are free to spend additional amount as per their requirement from their resources. This scheme is not a reimbursement scheme. This scheme has been under implementation since 1993. A total amount of Rs. 8325 crore has been spent under the Scheme since then upto 31.03.2021. #india #judiciary #Indianjudiciary #districtcourt #highcourt #supremecourt #legal #legalnews #news National Law School of India University Ministry of Law and Justice

Due to the unexpected, unjustifiable and unpardonable acts of the State Government, the CISF personnel are unable to perform their duty without any inconvenience, court has been told. The Ministry of Home Affairs has approached Supreme Court of India over the State of West Bengal's non-cooperation with the CISF personnel deployed at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital as per the top court's order.

The constitution of India, through Article 21, has established the right to life and dignity, i.e. no person shall be deprived of his life or personal liberty except according to the procedure established by law. This provision of “according to the procedure established by law” can be interpreted as an exception to liberty of life and personal dignity in the “rarest of the rare cases.’’ Capital Punishment is one such rarest of the rare cases. This paper seeks to explore the extent of capital punishment in India, exclusively in rape cases. It does not address the issue of capital punishment in general and is limited to the issue of rape alone. The paper would present arguments both in favour and against capital punishment. Additionally, it delves into different legal cases and aims to learn how the courts have defined the heinous crime of rape. The court decisions were rendered with considerations of public conscience, human rights, and the justification, fairness, and reasonableness of imposing the death penalty on the offender.

Who said Judiciary is independent in INDIA? Is This Justice? Reflections on a Lenient Punishment for a Tragic Incident** https://lnkd.in/gSnhAt5v As a punishment for killing two innocent people, a minor(Almost 18 yrs) in India has been granted bail under the following conditions: working with the Yerawada traffic police for 15 days, writing a 300-word essay on “The Effect of Road Accidents and Their Solutions,” and undergoing treatment to quit drinking, including psychiatric counseling. The counseling report must be submitted to the court. Additionally, the Juvenile Justice Board (JJB) has mandated that the minor study traffic rules and present them to the Board. He must also vow to assist accident victims in the future. We must question if this punishment is adequate for such a grave crime. The leniency shown raises concerns about our society's values and the effectiveness of our justice system. It feels as if we are living in the wrong times, with an approach reminiscent of a colonial mindset. RIP to the victims. We must strive for a justice system that truly holds individuals accountable for their actions.
