Chief Justice of India Bhushan Ramkrishna Gavai has said the interpretation of law or the Constitution has to be “pragmatic” and in a way that suits the needs of society.
Speaking at a felicitation organised for him by the Bombay High Court here on Saturday, he also said he recently received complaints about the rude behaviour of “some of the colleagues”, and urged judges to protect the institution’s reputation.
Citing a past Supreme Court judgement, CJI Gavai said any law or the Constitution has to be interpreted in the context of “problems faced by the present generation.” PTI
