Overhauling of Indian Judicial system

Many people oppose the Arundhati Roy’s opinion when it comes to "Maoist Gandhians with guns" or "Kashmir is the part of Pakistan". However, her observation about Indian judicial contains a little water. No doubt the country's judicial system should be overhauled to obtain justice to ordinary people. Judicial process see delayed justice, not only justice denied but the litigant is punished.

Current system of the judicial forum, if transaction colonial or not, is another question, but people refrain from asking for help from the Court because of unforeseen difficulties. If there is adequate money one can hire a senior lawyer and win the case. And if one has not sufficient money, he hires an average counsel then money as well as the case is lost. The rich and the influential alone win cases, is a tragic situation.

Further, comment by Arundhati that she would never support the Supreme Court order prohibiting street meetings is only to appease politicians who need interference with the peaceful life of ordinary people. Why can’t agitators prefer Minister Residences or compound of Secretariat or auditoriums for agitation that hinders the movement of ordinary people who are in search of livelihoods?
