Description
The thought provoking masterpiece Equal Justice and Forensic Process: Truth and Myth by V.R. Krishna Iyer contains lectures delivered by the learned author to commemorate the memory of Swamy Ramanand Teerth, the great freedom fighter who always revolted against injustice. Democratic Legality, in its processional egalite is the focus of these lectures. The learned author in his lectures has focused on forensic realism and its short-fall vis-à-vis social justice. He is a firm believer of the fact that the ultimate user of justice is the common man, in millions and not the millionaires. His lectures, based on opinions of eminent scholars, judges, jurists, writers, leaders and enriched by his own original thinking and critical analysis cover a vast canvas of the judicial process, its shortcomings and also ways of reformation. Justice Krishna Iyer, forcefully advocates a thorough overhaul of the legal system, which as he says, inflicts unlimited injustices upon the numerous voiceless illiterate masses of India. He emphasises greatly on the commitment of the judges to the concept of social and equal justice embedded in the preamble, Fundamental Rights and Directive Principles of the Constitution of India.
This substantial prolific and forceful work can be counted of as classical masterpiece of jurisprudential literature. The book will be immensely useful to legal scholars, jurists, administrators, students of judicial process, law reformers politicians, judges and a must in every library.

Author Details
JUSTICE V.R. KRISHNA IYER, born on 15th November, 1915, in northern Kerala and educated in Annainalai and Madras Universities, practiced law and defended peasants and workers against the exploitation of the feudal lords who had full support of the colonial regime. In 1956 Mr. lyer was elected initially to Madras Legislative Assembly and later, after reorganization of States, to the Kerala Assembly, where he was chosen as Minister in charge of important portfolios like Home, Law, Social Welfare and Irrigation. He was appointed judge of the Kerala High Court in July 1968 and became the Member of the Law Commission of India two years later. In 1973, the Supreme Court of India beckoned him where he played an important role in an era of judicial activism, public interest litigation, affirmative action through Courts and a wide ranging exercise of judicial review for which the Indian Judiciary is being hailed throughout the world today. Though his tenure in the Apex Court was relatively short, he managed to make a lasting impression on public mind. He is the author of numerous books and has penned innumerable articles and is a leading member of several social organizations and professional bodies.
