As Chief Justice of India, Justice Ramana could have shaped the future of the Court, but did not do so, in direct contrast to what was happening outside the walls of the Supreme Court.
As his career spanning over 22 years comes to a close, it will be interesting to see what comes next for CJI Ramana. In one of the many conferences he attended and spoke at during his tenure as CJI, he has made it clear that he will continue to remain active in public life.
“I think 65 years is too early for someone to retire! I worked almost 22 years as a High Court judge, Supreme Court judge and CJI. The Indian judiciary, we know our date of retirement at the time of joining. There are no exceptions. I’m still left with decent amount of energy. I love to be among the people. It has been my nature since student days. One thing I can say for certain is that retirement from the judiciary does not mean that I will retire from public life,” he recently said.
