CJI DY Chandrachud attends centenary year celebration of the High Court Bar Association, Nagpur
Speaking at the occasion, CJI Chandrachud said that lawyers commenting on pending cases, judgements is a very disturbing trend
The judiciary has broad shoulders and can take praise as well as criticism in its stride, the CJI said
Office-bearers and members of the bar should not forget while reacting to judicial decisions that they are officers of the court and not laypersons, he said
In a vibrant and argumentative democracy like India, most individuals have political ideologies or inclination, CJI Chandrachud noted
The bar as an institution is essential to preserve judicial independence, constitutional values and dignity of the court, the CJI added
