CJI Ramana said that pendency of cases is a challenge faced by courts in the country but he added that Indian judiciary cannot be defined or judged by one single order or judgment.
“I must admit that issue of listing and posting of matters is one of the areas on which I could not pay requisite attention. I am sorry for that. We are busy in fire fighting on all days” he said.
He further said that the credibility of the institution should be protected by the officers of the court and unless the credibility of the institution is intact, it cannot command respect from the people in the society.
“Indian judiciary has grown with time. It cannot be defined or judged by one single order or judgment. At all times, the majesty of this great institution shall be protected and defended by the bench and the bar,” he added.
