SC: "Independence of judiciary is the basic feature of the Constitution"
"Independence of judiciary is the basic feature of the
Constitution. It demands that a Judge who presides over the
trial, the Public Prosecutor who presents the case on behalf
of the State and the lawyer vis-a-vis amicus curiae who
represents the accused must work together in harmony in
the public interest of justice uninfluenced by the personality
of the accused or those managing the affairs of the State.
They must ensure that their working does not lead to
creation of conflict between justice and jurisprudence. A
person whether he is a judicial officer or a Public Prosecutor
or a lawyer defending the accused should always uphold the
dignity of their high office with a full sense of responsibility
and see that its value in no circumstance gets devalued. The
public interest demands that the trial should be conducted in
a fair manner and the administration of justice would be fair
and independent"
The aforesaid landmark observations with directions are made on dt.13 August 2013, by the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, while dismissing CRIMINAL APPEAL NO.1166 OF 2013, instituted by Mr. Lalu Prasad Yadav recently.
