My apprehensions about Administration of Justice in India:
1. Administration of criminal justice has now become an empty formality thanks to the dishonest politicians and corrupt police officers.
2. Justice Delivery System in the District of Dindigul is so vulnerable that only litigants of equal status can redress their grievances through legal means.
3. The law enforcement agencies are themselves putting spokes in the wheels of the administration of justice at the cost of majesty of law.
4. Police and politicians are organizing Kangaroo Court and victims are coerced by police and rowdies to sign the papers.
5. Uniformed and organized criminals are making the provisions of law meaningless by their fraudulent and unlawful activities.
6. Certain cases are being decided indirectly by the police and politicians in favour of their henchmen instead of allowing the cases to be decided by the Courts of law.
7. Administration of criminal justice is characterised by inefficiency, slowness and lethargy.
8. The policy of our constitutional polity that no person should be regarded as being above the law is only on paper. Principles of equality and fair trial are found only in the text books and not in the practice. There is a wide gap between theory and practice of “rule of law”.
9. Corruption in prosecuting agency is almost institutionalized and an accepted fact. There are some authorities who wilfully and deliberately refuse to discharge their statutory duties by taking illegal gratification and bribe money from the offenders. However, misbehaviour of a judicial officer cannot be easily proved.
10. Many a time, offenders / rowdies being the henchmen of powerful politicians, are protected by police and some times even by judicial officers. This is how the offenders are getting strengthened more and more and the innocent victims are further victimized.
11. Lawyers are alive, but, laws are dead and judges are alive ,but, justice is dead.
12. Unless India adopts a foolproof justice delivery system, it cannot prevent internal conflicts and violent self-help of its citizens to secure justice .
13. Indian citizens are forced to end their lives either by retaliatory attacks or by sudden deaths of stress related diseases thanks to the diluted justice delivery system in India.
14 .Unless the victims are properly advised and the offenders are dealt with severely, the probability of frustrated victims’ taking law in their own hands is not ruled out not only in the District of Dindigul but also in various parts of India wherein the people are placed under similar circumstances.
PRECEDENT:
Administration of Criminal Justice. “It is not only the obligation of the State administration, but for that matter, even of the Courts to ensure that a fair and effective criminal justice system is in place and is implemented. Administration of criminal justice system has two primary facets ( i ) investigation and ( ii ) trial leading to punishing the guilty offender”. 2010 ALL M.R. (Cri) 244 (BOM) (F.B).
