CJI Surya Kant Proposes Accessible Courts for Emergencies and More Constitution Benches

Chief Justice of India Surya Kant emphasized making Supreme Court and High Courts more accessible, proposing that constitutional courts be available beyond working hours for urgent legal emergencies, including protection from arrest. He also plans to establish more constitution benches to address key cases, such as those involving women's rights and electoral roll revisions. A nine-judge bench may be formed to examine the intersection of religious freedom and women's rights, referencing the Sabarimala temple case.
