Why India's legal system is failing its citizens—and what needs to change now to restore faith

Systemic inefficiencies, apathy fail citizens in quest for justice

The urgent need for justice and accountability in our society cannot be overstated. Public safety is not just a legal obligation; it is a fundamental right that must be upheld with urgency and clarity. Any act of crime—whether it is the horrific violence against women, the exploitation of vulnerable citizens, or the unchecked actions of corrupt individuals—demands immediate and decisive action.

Justice delayed is, as we know, justice denied. Delay is not just a failure of the law but a betrayal of the trust placed in it by the people. In a society where the wheels of justice grind slowly, the victims of crime bear the weight of a broken system, while the guilty walk free, unchecked. For justice to prevail, it must be swift, steadfast, impartial, and unwavering in its commitment to every citizen's rights.
