Researcher feels that “Justice without law is lame, law without justice is blind” i.e. why independence of judiciary is a sine quo non & in a normative sense, judicial independence would be independence from any factor influencing the judge to deviate from the oath of office, namely to uphold the constitution and the laws, and to act without fear or favour, affection or ill will. Anything short of these would spell absence of independence. Researcher also feels that mettle of a judge is tested by his ability to stand firm like Rock of gibratar in the face of tides and currents. That would be hallmark of true independence & by this quality its proved that judges ultimately are products of society & judicial independence ultimately would be directly proportional to the value attached by the citizens of the country& the judges to that signal virtue.
