Abstract

The Indian Constitution is the law of the land. However, it has often come under fire for its failure to meet expectations of adequate justice for all. The Indian judiciary has picked up the slack of the gaping holes in the Constitution. However, there is a heavy responsibility on its shoulders. The question becomes whether or not Indian judges can function with requisite independence. This paper will talk about some of the notable ethical dilemmas facing contemporary India's judiciary system and what can be done to remediate them. It will close with some thoughts on how judicial independence might affect future generations of Indians seeking justice.
