NEDUMBASSERY: The sharp increase in arbitrations and mediations was a clear indication that the judiciary was not functioning properly. The Laws should be given due importance to overcome this problem, said Supreme Court Judge Jasti Chelameswar here on Monday. He was laying the foundation stone of the Judicial Academy Building at Athani here.The main challenge which the Indian Judicial System faced was that the Laws and Acts were not given importance. The Judicial Academy gains importance in such circumstances. Presiding over the function, Kerala High Court Acting Chief Justice Manjula Chellur said that there was no specific direction in the Law Books or Academy classes on how a judge should behave and what the society expected from the judges.
