Power always makes thing Perfect

There is saying in Hindu epic Ramayana- "Samrath kou nahi dosh gosain" - meaning powerful is above misdeed. Probably these words are getting support by numerous examples we read or see around us.
there are filmi heroes,worshipped like god and godesses flaunting social rules at a drop of a hat, they dont bother to recognise that their acts are looked upon and folllowed by their fans without a second thought. These film star promise to marry one someday and change partners without a blink and still pose as they are right in thier deeds in the name of freedon to live thier life as per thier wish.
Same goes with politicians when they talk of justice and fairness when they are opposing something but the moment thier own misdeeds are questions they become ignorant and unavailable for clarification.
why we allow these hypocracy around us ? are we hypocrates ourselves ?

Justice delayed is Justice Denied

People sitting in powerful positions and capable of giving decisions do make tall claims that we sort out matters in best possible ways and in shortest time limits. They say that we believe in “Justice delayed is Justice denied”.

Today’s TOI says there are over 50,000 cases are pending in Supreme Court, if casually I link the above statement with this fact, a though comes that probably justice is being denied in these cases. It’s true that such huge pending cases put a question on functioning of our judicial system and allied departments who support this process.

Even, I wonder when I learnt that top courts go for leaves like summer vacations. How can we follow traditions of BRITISH RAJ so blindly? Those days were different; scenarios were different; probably involvement and responsibility were different.

But despite all the possible constraints and logics for these long vacations of courts and reasons for such huge pending cases this system should me more fast and productive. Probably we need to increase the number of courts, support staff and provide other required resources to enhance the speed of judgment.

With due respect to existing system of justice, I feel there must be some simple logics that can explain reasons for such huge pending cases.
