Speaking about the judicial delays, and prolonged trials, he had said, “Our country and legal system are facing unique challenges. Delays in trials can sometimes go for decades. We have seen cases where someone has been found innocent after spending years in jail as an undertrial. Our best talent can help us resolve the problems that we are facing.”

During the ceremony a special postal cover, “Babasaheb Dr BR Ambedkar – Constituent Assembly – Constitution of India”, was also released by the CJI.
