DK Sharma & Co. proudly welcomes the new vision of Lady Justice, unveiled at the Supreme Court of India, under the leadership of Chief Justice DY Chandrachud. This new representation, with open eyes and the Constitution replacing the sword, sends a powerful message that the law in India is not blind but sees everyone equally, dispensing justice based on the values enshrined in the Constitution. The shift from the colonial-era sword to the Constitution reflects India’s progressive departure from its British legacy, emphasizing that our courts deliver justice through constitutional principles, not by wielding punitive authority. The retention of the scales symbolizes balance and fairness in society, reminding us that facts and arguments are weighed carefully before decisions are made. We believe this transformation aligns with the evolving role of our judiciary and reinforces our commitment to justice according to the Constitution. #LadyJustice #SupremeCourt #ConstitutionalLaw #Equality #Justice Arpit Dangi

The Supreme Court of India has recently introduced a new statue of Lady Justice, and it’s different from what we’ve seen before. This change, led by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, aims to move away from old colonial symbols and embrace Indian culture. In the past, Lady Justice was shown with a blindfold to symbolize fairness—meaning justice should be the same for everyone, no matter who they are. She also carried scales to weigh cases fairly and a sword to show the power of the law. But now, the new statue doesn’t have a blindfold. Instead, her eyes are open, and she holds the Indian Constitution instead of a sword. This change shows that justice in India isn’t blind; it sees everyone’s reality and focuses on what is right according to our Constitution, not just punishing people. The statue is also dressed in a saree to celebrate Indian culture. This new statue is a step towards making our laws and courts more modern and connected to our country’s heritage. It shows that justice in India is about fairness, equality, and staying true to our values. Here’s to a future where justice is open-eyed and fair for all! 🇮🇳 #JusticeForAll #SupremeCourtOfIndia #LegalReform #IndianCulture #Equality #Justice #Constitution

Does it liberate Milords from clutches of Court Fixers like Sibal, Singhvi etc., who get time of SC at anytime of their choice and get favorable judgements to satisfy their High profile clients like Raul, Lalu, Kejri, Khera, Teselvad, Azam Khan etc. Clock should be part of the Statue so that Indians get Justice within Finite Time. How does it ensure Accountability within Judiciary, which still prefers to work from the black box of Collegium System, that is opaque and not at all transparent? Book should include another Open Book that declares to Public the Assets & foreign travels of Milords, political and judicial connections that influence their selection over Merit and paid Lecture Circuit of Milords within & outside India. #supremecourtofindia #pmoindia #narendramodi #judicialreforms

The recent decision by the Supreme Court of India to redesign the iconic Lady Justice statue is a significant step towards redefining the perception of justice in the country. By removing the blindfold and replacing the sword with the Constitution, the Court has symbolically shed its colonial legacy and embraced a more inclusive and democratic vision of justice. While some may argue that this is merely a symbolic change, it is important to recognize that such gestures can have a profound impact on public perception and inspire a renewed commitment to the principles of justice and equality. The Constitution, as the cornerstone of Indian democracy, is a powerful symbol of hope and progress. By holding it aloft, Lady Justice can serve as a constant reminder of the importance of upholding the rule of law and protecting the rights of all citizens. #SupremeCourt #LadyJustice #LegalReforms #India #Constitution #Justice #Equality #RuleOfLaw #ColonialLegacy

While the redesign of Lady Justice symbolizes a shift towards a modern interpretation of justice, I believe it won't address the core issues we face. The Chief Justice should prioritize tackling the backlog of pending cases and improving the abysmal conviction rates. Our entire justice system, including law enforcement and prosecution, requires a comprehensive overhaul rather than just a new statue. It's time to focus on substantive reforms that will bring about real change.
