CJI Gavai: Constitution Supreme, Institutions Must Collaborate
Imagine the government is like a building with three important parts: the judges (judiciary), the leaders (executive), and the lawmakers (legislature).
The Chief Justice said the most important part is the Constitution, which is like the building's foundation.
He also said these three parts must work together and respect each other.
During his first visit to Mumbai since becoming Chief Justice, some officials didn't follow proper protocol, which he pointed out, emphasizing respect for all parts of the government.
He also spoke about how everyone should be treated equally and fairly.
