Justice Delayed, Justice Prioritized The contrast in how justice is delivered in high-profile cases versus those involving ordinary citizens is stark. Political Assassinations: The trials following the assassinations of Mohandas Gandhi (1948) and Indira Gandhi (1984) were expedited, reflecting their national importance. Both cases concluded swiftly, showing how political significance can accelerate judicial processes. Nirbhaya Case:The brutal gang rape of Jyoti Singh in 2012 led to massive public outcry, resulting in a fast-tracked trial. Despite this, the legal process took nearly eight years due to appeals and reviews, highlighting systemic delays even in high-profile cases. Ordinary Rape Cases:Many rape cases without media attention or political connections languish in the courts for years, reflecting the judiciary's struggles with backlogs and resource constraints. This comparison underscores the urgent need for judicial reforms to ensure timely justice for all, regardless of public or political pressure. #Justice #JudicialReform #Equality #Law #HumanRights
