The Indian Supreme Court was established nearly seventy-five years ago as a core part of India’s constitutional project. Does the Court live up to the ideals of justice imagined by the framers of the Indian Constitution?

Critics of the Supreme Court point out that it takes too long to adjudicate cases, a select group of senior advocates exercise disproportionate influence on the outcome of cases, the Chief Justice of India strategically assigns cases with an eye to outcome, and the self-appointments process-known as the collegium-is just another ‘old boys’ network’.

This event is presented by the Bangalore International Centre and Article 14.

Event time is 6:00 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. IST, 7:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m. CT
