quick edit: thanks to the law

“I would like to thank the Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, all the judges of the Supreme Court, Chief Justices and Judges of the High Courts, the lower judiciary and the entire law authorities for their immense support in ensuring ease of justice and providing legal services to our citizens Thank you,” tweeted Rijiju soon after Kiren India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi handed over his portfolio of law and justice to Arjun Ram Meghwal in a cabinet switch. The tweet by Rijiju, who will now handle Earth Sciences, created a buzz for its irony. His tenure as law minister was marked by an apparently worsening impasse between the government and the judiciary over the appointment of judges. No less controversial were his remarks, which were considered to cast doubt on the nationalism of some former judges. This caused an uproar. Recently, Rijiju, an MP from Arunachal Pradesh, said that allowing same-sex marriage was entirely in the legislative domain and was not an issue for the apex court. While the elected representatives of the people can always differ from the holders of constitutional values ​​on policy vs rights. , Friction had begun to flare up. Ease in relationships will make us all grateful.
