New Delhi, Nov. 9 -- Chief Justice of India (CJI) Bhushan R Gavai on Saturday said that the success of the legal service movement is not determined by statistics or reports, but by faith of common people who feel somebody is there to stand by them in time of distress. Addressing the national conference on "Strengthening Legal Aid Delivery Mechanisms" in New Delhi, the CJI said, "The strength of a just society lies in our ability to foresee where injustice may arise, and to reach there before it does." Sharing his experience of visiting the Manipur riot victims' relief camp at Churachandpur in March this year, CJI Gavai said that there he got to know what legal aid really means to those who receive it, when an elderly woman came up to him with folded hands and teary eyes to say, "Live long, brother". "The true reward of the legal services movement does not lie in statistics or annual reports. It lies in the quiet gratitude and renewed faith of citizens who once felt invisible," CJI said, adding, "The real measure of success of legal service movement is in trust of the common person, in the belief that someone, somewhere, is willing to stand by them..." Joined by other judges of the Supreme Court on the Legal Service Day, CJI Gavai said he was reminded about "Gandhiji's talisman" to recall the face of the poorest and the weakest person we have seen, and ask ourselves if the step we contemplate will be of any use to them. He said, "Justice is not a privilege of the few but a right of every citizen, and that our role, as judges, lawyers, and officers of the court, is to ensure that the light of justice reaches even the last person standing at the margins of society." before."...
