*Judiciary should also come under CPA (Consumer Protection Act)*
👉🏼In the Salman Khan hit and run case the LOWER court judge and the HIGH court judge had the SAME pieces of EVIDENCE to deal with.
👉🏼They also had the SAME Indian LAW to abide by and most probably they had similar education qualifications too.
👉🏼Yet they INTERPRETED the situation in absolutely CONTRASTING manner and gave verdicts which are poles apart.
👉🏼Just imagine what would have happened if a YOUNG doctor sitting in a GOVERNMENT hospital doctor catering to hundreds of patients in a day had diagnosed a celebrity patient presenting with gastric discomfort as GASTRITIS and another hospital had LATER on diagnosed that patient to be having a MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION. I am sure that doctor would have been screwed and jailed.
👉🏼A JUDGE gets YEARS to decide on a case
unlike a DOCTOR who is expected to diagnose and treat everything in the BLINK of an eye.
👉🏼If a doctor making a wrong diagnosis can be prosecuted shouldn’t a judge giving wrong verdicts meet the same fate?
👉🏼If hospitals can be sued for not admitting poor patients shouldn’t the courts be prosecuted for having lacs of impending cases?
👉🏼Is it not appalling that a judge taking 12 years to give a wrong verdict gets away unhurt and a doctor making one mistake is screwed by our legal system?
👉🏼Doctors practice medicine which is more of an art than an exact science whereas law is absolutely 100% manmade, yet doctors are expected to be right on all occasions.
👉🏼If doctors and hospitals have a duty towards the society then does the judiciary not have a responsibility towards the socitey.
👉🏼If there is so much of hue and cry in media about doctors and hospitals charging huge sums from patients then why do we not ever hear a word on the fee that lawyers like Manu singhvi and Jethmalani charge for their court appearances.
👉🏼Government often talks about putting a capping on the fees doctors charge for various procedures but their is no talk of putting a capping on the fee that these lawyers charge to get justice for their clients.
👉🏼If health is a citizen’s right then so is justice. Shall we take our minds off worshipping false heroes & think?
*JUDICIARY SHOULD ALSO COME UNDER CPA (CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT)*
Please share if you agree.
Two Indians concept.

Thought provoking article. Would require long deliberations.
Although I would like to add that though all lawyers do learn the same thing in their respective schools but when in practice the law often is translated differently by different lawyers/judges solely with respect to whatever the case maybe. And how a lawyer is able to twist the same for the benefit of his/her client defines his/her calibre and that is why they charge such high fees.
Overall nice reading. 👍
