Puducherry:Chief Justice of India U U Lalit has said there would be a greater number of women adorning judiciary in the near future. Addressing the valediction of the golden jubilee celebrations of the Dr B R Ambedkar Government Law College here on Saturday, the Chief Justice of India referred to the appeal of Lieutenant Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan earlier in her address during the celebrations that women should come forward in large numbers to legal studies and also sought more women judges.
The Chief Justice of India said that already in five States, including Orissa, Jharkhand, Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu, the number of women at the induction-level in the judiciary was larger. He suggested that law colleges include the subject of 'adjudication' which would help young lawyers turning out of the institutions to nurture their talent.
