CUTTACK: India President Droupadi Murmu today, July 26, urged legal professionals to work towards expeditious trial and speedy dispensation of justice.

Speaking at the 75th-year bash of the Orissa High Court in Cuttack, President Murmu showered praise on India's legal profession, calling it a trusty pillar of the world's biggest democracy. But she knows we can always do better.

The heart of her message is clear—our legal warriors should fight for speedy trials and quick justice. There are innocent souls behind bars, y'all! Locked away on some flimsy charges, they're losing precious moments of their lives. That ain't right, and she's raising the red flag!

You know what else gets her goat? Some folks end up doing time longer than the crime demands. Victims yearn for justice while the guilty roam free, and that's a major bummer. So she's calling out the High Court of Orissa to set an example for the whole country by speeding up justice delivery!

President Murmu takes a moment to emphasize the importance of justice for the underprivileged folks. They ain't got the knowledge or the means to access justice easily. It's a burning question, y'all! How can we make sure they get a fair shake? Let's put our heads together and figure this out!

Now, let's talk about the Orissa High Court's milestone celebration! For 75 years, they've been rocking it with top-notch luminaries like Babu Jagannath Das and Ranganath Misra. These legal rockstars even made it to the Supreme Court and some served as Chief Justice of India. Impressive, ain't it?

But, y'all, it's not just the big shots making waves! Behind this legendary court's reputation, there's a team of dedicated people—chiefs, judges, lawyers, and staff—doing their thing with loyalty and knowledge. They're the backbone, y'all!

Change is the name of the game, folks! President Murmu believes any institution that ain't evolving is getting left behind. That's why she's proud of the Orissa HC for embracing tech and innovation to speed up justice delivery. Go, team!

And can we take a minute to appreciate her reminder about Mother Nature? Yup, she's telling the judiciary to give environment and wildlife protection top priority. After all, natural calamities ain't no joke, and we gotta adapt!

But before she wraps up, she pays heartfelt tributes to the brave soldiers who gave their all in the Kargil War. Among them were Odisha's very own heroes, like Major Padmapani Acharya, who got the Maha Vir Chakra. These brave souls will always inspire us, she says.
