Justice Manmohan Urges Viewing Legal System Criticism as Constructive Feedback

Justice Manmohan emphasized that criticism of the legal system should be viewed as constructive suggestions rather than condemnation. Speaking at a legal conclave, he illustrated this with a case where he quashed an FIR against a film producer under the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes Act, noting that depicting social evils in films is necessary for public understanding. He also highlighted the importance of addressing system shortcomings to improve justice and advocated for a global perspective in legal education and cautious use of technology.
