A lot of criticism is
being raised from enemies of the Aam Aadmi Party regarding Arvind Kejrieal’s refusal to remit bail
amount in a defamation case and preferring to go to jail rather than remitting
the bail amount. I feel that it has raised some fundamental issues in our
judicial system which will be helpful when some urgently needed judicial reforms
are taken up in India. The Indian Judicial System still follows many of the
practices followed by our former British Rulers which were largely intended for
the subjugation of a Slave Country. Indian Judicial system has become so tilted
in favour of the super rich so that even for a middle class person like me the
Supreme Court is unapproachable. Recently in a farewell speech on the eve of
his retirement Justice Radhakrisnan of Supreme Court stated that only the rich
Corporates can get justice from the Supreme Court. Under the circumstances Kejri
wal’s bail incident has helped to draw the attention of the Nation to these
anomalies in the judicial system. The Aam AAdmi Party must declare that
Judicial Reforms will be on its agenda along with fight against corruption.
