The Majesty of the Judiciary is a compelling collection of Justice V. R. Krishna Iyer's articles on judicial philosophy, constitutional reforms, jurisprudence, and high-stakes legal themes such as the death penalty and arbitration.
In these essays, he articulates his concept of judicial dignity grounded in access to justice, institutional integrity, and social equity. Drawing from landmark judgments and personal reflections, Justice Iyer explores themes like judicial independence, reform of legal processes, and the courts’ ethical obligations toward the marginalized.
Revered for democratizing legal access through public interest litigation and advancing humane jurisprudence, his writings underscore the judiciary's role as not just arbiter but moral compass in a democratic republic.
