"Revenue records are public documents maintained by government officials in the regular course of duties and carry a presumption of correctness under Section 35 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872. While it is true that revenue entries do not by themselves confer title, they are admissible as evidence of possession and can support a claim of ownership when corroborated by other evidence,"

Criminologyโ
Development of Life Course (DLC) theory is a widely accepted theory in the field of criminology which presumes that for an individual many events such as their upbringing, peer and parental interactions, presence of any trauma etc. can be a clear indicator of their predisposition to a life of crime

"Insularity relates to the notion that Courts must not become grounds for realization of political aims. Insularity is believed to result, inter alia, from granting security of tenure to judges and providing significant checks and balances in their appointment," she explained. ย The judicial role must be detached from the interests of the political system or the concerns of powerful social groups. The role must solely be to regulate the legality of state acts, ensure justice and determine the general constitutional and legal values

MP Judicial Services: High Court Orders Migration Of Meritorious Reserved Category Candidates To Unreserved Category In Future Recruitment Exams

The Court recalled that in 2002, a direction was passed in theย All India Judges Associationย case that by 2007, judge to population ratio in the trial judiciary should be 50 per million. However, even in 2024, this ratio is not even 25 per million.
These observations while expunging certain adverse remarks made by the Delhi High Court against a Sessions Judge. The Court held that personal criticism of judicial officers should be avoided while setting aside the orders.
In the judgment which called for judicial restraint while making remarks against the personal conduct of judges, the Court reminded that even the judges of higher courts are vulnerable to making mistakes.
The judgment also referred to the immense stress faced by judges due to the huge workload, which makes them prone to make errors.

โ Questionโ
A police officer pleads defence on encounter killing saying that order of superior officer is binding on us.
๐
ฐ๏ธnswer-
Prakash Kadam v. Ramprasad Vishwanath Gupta, 2011
We warn policemen that they will not be excused for committing murder in the name of โencounterโ on the pretext that they were carrying out the orders of their superior officers or politicians, however high. In the Nuremburg trials the Nazi war criminals took the plea that โorders are ordersโ nevertheless they were hanged. If a policeman is given an illegal order by any superior to do a fake โencounterโ, it is his duty to refuse to carry out such illegal order, otherwise he will be charged for murder, and if found guilty sentenced to death.

๐ฎ๐ณ๐จโโ๏ธ Matsanyaya (Mahabharata, Kautilya, Shatapatha Brahmana)
(Big fish eating small)
โ Kautilya- โif danda be not employed, it gives rise to the condition of matsyanyaya, since in the absence of a chastiser the strong devour the weakโ. That in the absence of a king (arajaka) or when there is no fear of punishment then condition of matsyanyaya follows.
โ Shantiparva of Mahabharata Bhisma Pitamah tells Yudhishthir that there is nothing worse in the world than lawlessness, for in a state of matsyanyaya, nobody, not even the evil doers are safe, because even the evil doers will sooner or later be swallowed up by other evil doers.
โ๏ธ Sentencing and Punishment theory to Police officials.
Yashwant v. State of Maharashtra, 2018
wherein this Court laid down that when the police is violator of the law whose primary responsibility is to protect the law, the punishment for such violation has to be proportionately stringent so as to have effective deterrent effect and instil confidence in the society.
