It is true that judges have to be independent. But that’s in exercise of their constitutional and official duty. It is not correct (and perhaps even inhuman) to suggest that judges must isolate themselves from all politically connected persons in private and social events as well. We can’t socially ostracise Judges.

Hon’ble Justice D.Y. Chandrachud has proven to be a judge of impeccable integrity, impartiality and honesty throughout his career. As a judge and as a person, he has been the epitome of probity.

We must allow him the privacy and the right to celebrate a religious Puja with his family and invitees of his choosing. This is his individual constitutional right and freedom.

Let’s not lose the plot.
