During the 4th Ashok Desai Memorial lecture, Chief Justice of India Surya Kant articulated a vision for the future of the Indian judiciary, asserting that it cannot remain limited to traditional buildings or geographical constraints. He emphasized the importance of transforming the judiciary into a service that is accessible and seamlessly integrated into the daily lives of citizens. In this envisioned future, justice should not require individuals to travel to seek it; rather, it should reach them efficiently and equitably. CJI Kant highlighted that judges will need to possess a broader understanding of complex issues, such as synthetic biology and environmental responsibility, which will challenge conventional legal frameworks. He called for a judiciary that is more responsive and sensitive to the realities of a changing society, aiming for a justice system that is closely intertwined with the lives of citizens over the next 50 years.
