The Court has evolved something to pacify the Advocates through their hogwash suspension of 2 police officers, just for the sake of having the Advocates crowd during the oath taking ceremony for the next lot of 14 Judges to be sworn in shortly, is nothing but a simple ploy to trap the agitating Advocates to return to Court on some pretext or other and to give them an honourable exit. As lawyers we have to welcome that something has happened to bring down the curtains on this ugly issue, but finally it turns out that the Advocates are the losers.
I would like to emphatically state that it is a national shame that such judges who are just plain cowards and shameless sit in our Courts. I am mentioning about the Judges who had the taste of the mob police's Lathis but still did not open their mouth against it or act against it through their enormous powers under the Contempt of Court Act.
The Judges of the High court along with those of the City civil court and also the Small causes court who were hit but had not opened their mouth to raise a complaint, on such a plain criminal action are not fit to be judges and deliver judgments. What right have they got to indict witnesses turning hostile or to chastise the witness who under some duress or reward succumbs against truth. These high priests of justice themselves are mortally afraid of the police or the State government and have not proceeded to tell the truth either to the Srikrishna Commission or to the President of India or initiate suo moto action for contempt against the police.
It would be better for the lawyers to boycott these judges courts in the interests of justice and also in the better interests of Truth and our Country, till they tender their resignations voluntarily or are forced to resign wilting on the shame of their ineptitude. Whatever happens, whether they resign or not, their conscience will kill them for having buried the truth in such a shameless manner and that too even after much spilling of blood on this august premises.
It will not be very long before the Delhi police to enter parliament and lathi charge the members during a session, just because like what happened in our high court, a group of naxalite members would cause some contempt and the police would take the opportunity to humiliate the institution ( of course with the permission of the head of the State at that time) !!!

The above have been written without a sense of
ReplyDeletefairness.You have concluded that same can happen in parliament is somewhat cynical.The members of the parliament degrades the institution by openly supporting the enemies of the nation ,misuses their rights and declare that they do not believe in the law of the land,casting aspersion on the highest officer of the land I for one welcome such move.
Some of the lawyers for instance went out of HC and burnt a cycle shop and forced others to close the establishments behaved like hooligans No body neither their so called leaders nor police could control them.At least on the next day the authorities concerned should have taken some action.But like you all seniors ,juniors joined the crowd and pretended nothing had happened.
Do you think this is all because of judges,policemen,politicians ? I do not think so .The degradation started years back ,when you were in school, and like today nobody no the so called "educated" remained silent or they behaved in a manner that might is right.
The result the police can not question lawyers,busmen,Govt.officials,students,taxi wallahs,politicians (however small group they may be)doctors none.Finally the ordinary people suffer and the doyens civil liberty activity can turn other way.
