Supreme Court: Dilution of Labour Laws Over 75 years

My threadbare analysis of the entire decisions rendered by the Supreme Court over the last 75 years by different benches and judges had clearly showed that the judiciary never rose over the economic system of the particular period.

- Justice K.Chandru

Justice K. Chandru is a retired judge of the Madras High Court, famous for his moral rectitude. Among other things, he was one of the first judges to declare his assets to the Chief Justice; he refused to have a red beacon on his official car or a sub-inspector ranked personal security guard; he refused to be addressed as 'My Lord' in court; and surrendered his official car on the morning of his retirement, going home by public transport that evening. He passed many landmark judgements, many in favour of the underprivileged or marginalised sections of society.
