‘Judiciary always ready to address problems, suffering of people’: CJI
CJI Surya Kant said the Supreme Court's doors are open 24 hours to every citizen and the judiciary will address grievances within the law.
The CJI assured the nation's youth that the judiciary will protect their rights and address legitimate grievances.
CJI clarified that the Supreme Court had not refused to hear the matter; only a letter or representation was submitted, not a proper petition.
Once proper petitions were filed and mentioned, the court agreed to list them for hearing.
The CJI's statement came amid nationwide student protests and controversy over alleged security force excesses during a July 20 march to Parliament.
