Constitutional vision to protect dignity of women

“

Yatra nāryastu pūjyante ramante tatra devatāḥ, yatraitaastu na pūjyante sarvāstatra aphalāḥ kriyāḥ.”

i.e., "Where women are honoured, divinity flourishes; and where they are dishonoured, all acts become fruitless.", 

“This verse reflects not merely a cultural principle but a constitutional vision. The dignity of women is non-negotiable, and our legal system must not permit repeated intrusion into that dignity under the guise of misplaced sympathy or alleged procedural fairness.”, the court said.

👨‍👧 Principle of Sentencing in incestuous offences
"When a child is forced to suffer at the hands of her own father, the law must speak in a voice that is resolute and uncompromising. There can be no mitigation in sentencing for crimes that subvert the very notion of family as a space of security," 

💰 Directed State of HP to award compensation under victim comopensation scheme. (cited nipun saxena case)
“This Court reiterates that justice must not be limited to conviction, it must, where the law so permits, include restitution. In awarding this compensation, we reaffirm the constitutional commitment to protect the rights and dignity of child survivors, and to ensure that the justice delivered is substantive, compassionate, and complete.”

In Re, Hon’ble Shri Justice C.S. Karnan, 2017.

Can a judge be removed via contempt punishment without impeachment procedure?

Fun Fact: The contemnor (in this case a HC judge) restrained the order of CJ HC and imposed cost.

Did not want to cause embarrassment to Allahabad High Court judge: Supreme Court

However, while agreeing to recall its direction against Justice Kumar, the top court also said that it hopes not to come across such perverse and unjust orders from any High Court in future.
