Описание: In this eye-opening episode of The India Story podcast, host Vikram Chandra sits down with Mukul Rohatgi, one of India’s most respected legal minds and former Attorney General, to discuss the deep-rooted crisis in India’s judicial system. They delve into why the legal system is clogged with delays, excessive appeals, and outdated laws inherited from the British era that no longer suit India’s massive population. Mukul Rohatgi lays out a bold vision for radical reform—simplifying laws, cutting down frivolous appeals, and empowering government officials to make fearless decisions without fear of prosecution.
