'Judicial activism' becoming inevitable due to inaction of governments


- Important gift given to India by the British in the British era after the chaos that took place at the end of the Middle Ages: 'Rule of Law'

It is well known that the first 'Company Government' and the British government that settled in India after 191 left no stone unturned in plundering India but at the same time it must be admitted that Regime) and 'Justice by Trial'. In fact, Lord Macaulay founded Occidental Education (the current Western education system) in India in the 19th century. With the spread of English across the country, intellectuals from one corner of the country could easily interact with intellectuals from another corner. At the same time, railways and aviation were established in India by the second phase of the 20th century.

At this point, we need an example of the British-era justice system: An incident that took place in Mumbai province at that time is given in a book called 'Hundred Years of Bombay High Court'.

Normally every monsoon the Governor of Mumbai Province and his office would return to Poona, but the High Court would be located in Mumbai. The Poona-based governor was informed of the High Court's verdict against the Mumbai government and said with a smile: "The judge has given a verdict, let him execute it. The governor made the sarcastic remarks to the then Chief Justice of the Bombay High Court, who was so enraged that he locked the court building and left for England in a steamer the next morning. (He did not need a 'visa' as he had a British passport.)

The news reached the Poona-based governor. The governor then telephoned the commissioner of Aden, who was under Mumbai's control. 'Please extend my solemn apology to his Lordship at my behest at the same time, inform His Lordship that I have tendered my resignation to his Excellency Governor General and Viceroy of India' Let them know that I have sent my resignation letter to His Excellency the Governor General and the Viceroy.)

This was the tradition of the British era which continued for years even in independent India but in the last few years we seem to have almost abandoned that tradition! Not only can there be direct contempt of court but we are bragging about the execution of court orders that we have become masters in the art of presenting a case before the court. However, the judges also catch what we saw in the pervasive pollution case in Delhi. Along with this, some incidents are also remembered like the tragedy of Morbi's Machhu Dam. In fact, cracks had already started appearing in the dam. The guards patrolling the dam area told the engineers that small droplets of water were flying out of it, but no one paid any attention to it. No one can be held responsible for what the then state government told the One-Man Commission about the tragedy, despite the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives. This is a natural phenomenon. The judge was in a good mood when it came to heavy rains in Uparvas. Teoshri said, "Why didn't you pay attention to what the guards said?" So the government had no answer.

As far as the 'call gate' (call-scam) is concerned, the state government did its best to save the daughter of the then Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu and another 'dignitary'. Were, 'This ... Yes ... Yes .. What is happening in this country? God save this country. '

Oops! The court was upset with the recent Uttar Pradesh police's crackdown on the accused in the Lakhimpur-Kheri incident. Finally, the Uttar Pradesh government formed a Social Investigation Team (SIT) but did not trust the apex court. He set up another SIT and placed it under the direct supervision of an out-of-state High Court judge.

From all this, it is clear that no court, from the trial court to the Supreme Court, has lost faith in the actions of government officials. Their latest rebuke of the Central and State Governments by the Supreme Court regarding the pollution in Delhi has brought down the fabric of our administration. Now, whatever action is taken, it must be done, but looking at the Colgate scandal papers with it, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court hears the words again: 'God save this country.'

It is imperative that the courts play an active role in this situation. At a time when the administration seems to be falling asleep, 'Judicial activism is the only basis for the country, for the common man.'
