The legal fraternity needs to stand up for those in need and not keep silent when an evil is seen, Supreme Court Chief Justice H.L. Dattu said here on Saturday.


“In today’s world, a lawyer is not merely confined to wearing black robes of an advocate in the court. You wear an additional robe — that of a social reformer. The challenges in society are multidimensional and one must strive to overcome them in a timely and suitable manner,” said Justice Dattu.
“In keeping silent about evil, we bury it deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface. When we neither punish nor reproach evil-doers, we are not simply protecting them, we are ripping the foundations of justice from beneath new generations,” he said.

Law College students who are the future lawyers are the one who don’t follow the laws.

Let them inculcate lawful behavior to them while they are under training before motivating them to rise up to fight against social evils.

The Madras High Court censured these students for their blocking the traffic and thus caused inconvenience to the general public of Chennai.

In keeping silent about evil, we bury it deep within us that no sign of it appears on the surface. Eve Gods wait for a call Never Suo moto action

Kannan justifies ihis inaction

அண்ணன் ஆணையை நிறைவேற்ற துச்சாதனன் சென்று, திரௌபதியின் சிகையைப் பிடித்தபோது, அவளாவது என்னைக் கூப்பிட்டாளா? இல்லை. அவளும் தனது பலத்தையே நம்பி, சபையில் வந்து, வாதங்கள் செய்து கொண்டிருந்தாளே ஒழிய, என்னைக் கூப்பிடவில்லை! நல்லவேளை... துச்சாதனன் துகிலுரித்தபோதும் தனது பலத்தால் போராடாமல், 'ஹரி... ஹரி... அபயம் கிருஷ்ணா... அபயம்’ எனக் குரல் கொடுத்தாள் பாஞ்சாலி. அவளுடைய மானத்தைக் காப்பாற்ற அப்போதுதான் எனக்குச் சந்தர்ப்பம் கிடைத்தது. அழைத்ததும் சென்றேன். அவள் மானத்தைக் காக்க வழி செய்தேன். இந்தச் சம்பவத்தில் என் மீது என்ன தவறு?'' என்று பதிலளித்தான் கண்ணன்.

There is one "Traffic" Ramaswamy,even at the Age of 82 (or so), is not a silent on the evil of "Posters not removed even after ordered by the Court".
And he got the treatment of Arrest in early morning.
This is the Reality.
The social responsibilty of people (politicians,executives,professionals,students etc,etc)should improve to reach the stage where people realise the importance of their role to the society.
