Saw Mamata Banerjee at the Supreme Court today. Looks far cuter in person than on TV.
unfortunately, her deeds haven’t aged half as well. Optics vs records, live edition. 😌⚖️

Justice B.V. Nagarathna continues to carry the entire burden of ‘gender representation’ in the Supreme Court—because why would 1.4 billion people need more than one woman judge anyway? 🙃⚖️ #SupremeCourt#JusticeNagarathna
@CiteCase Unfortunate? The Union must have marked 10 lawyers on paper — and each will still raise a fee bill. That’s the real tragedy. @barandbench@LiveLawIndia
Justice Aradhe and Justice Pancholi take their seats at the Supreme Court. Meanwhile, Justice Nagarathna still holds the title of ‘solo woman squad’ on the Bench. ⚖️👩⚖️ #OneIsNotEnough
@utkarsh_aanand Justice Nagarathna’s dissent isn’t just a footnote—it’s a reminder that Justice Pancholi’s 2023 transfer wasn’t routine but for ‘serious and grave reasons’ backed by 3 SC consultee judges. Ignoring that raises bigger questions than it answers. #Collegium#Judiciary
@TheLeaflet_in Judicial musical chairs is back! 🎶 14 judges shuffled across High Courts, 3 packed for Delhi, 1 shipped out, and one on a round-trip ticket from Rajasthan to Delhi and back. Transfers look less like policy, more like Indian Railways. 🚆⚖️ #Collegium
@IJaising Justice Nagrathna’s dissent on Justice Pancholi’s elevation is a reminder: seniority, diversity & transparency can’t be optional in judicial appointments. When the 57th in line makes it to SC over others, the collegium starts to look less like a system—and more like a cartel.
CJI Gavai’s collegium pushes his nephew for Bombay HC.
Why bother with merit when bloodlines can deliver the robe? Judiciary or family business? If the Bench starts looking more like a family reunion, should we still call it the Judiciary or just the Joint Family Court?
@advsanjoy Bas isi liye Allahabad ko ‘practice ground’ kehte hain—yahaan har naya vakil ya to history banata hai ya history padhata hai! 🤭⚖️ @advsanjoy
📊 Representation of Women in Indian Judiciary :
Supreme Court: ~3%
High Courts: ~14%
District Courts: ~36%
When justice itself is half absent, can equality ever be whole?

Allahabad High Court edition of “Guess Who’s Missing?”
Sanctioned: 160
Present: 84
Vacant chairs: 76 (and counting..)
Each judge is left with 15,000+ cases. But hey, why hurry? Justice can wait -after all, time moves slower in courts! #VacancyCrisis#JudicialReforms@barandbench
