CJI Gavai Flags Off SCBA’s ‘Justice for All’ Run to Launch Access-to-Justice Campaign in Delhi

The bar body’s new campaign spotlights mounting case backlogs to push mediation as a route to restoring confidence in justice delivery.

Overview

  • The 8-kilometre walk began at the Supreme Court of India campus and concluded at India Gate.
  • Roughly 2,000 participants took part, including judges, senior lawyers and members of the wider Bar.
  • Senior Supreme Court judges present included Justices Surya Kant, Vikram Nath, J K Maheshwari and Sanjay Karol, with some Delhi High Court judges also joining.
  • SCBA positioned alternative dispute resolution—especially mediation and arbitration—as practical tools for faster, more sustainable outcomes.
  • SCBA president Vikas Singh said “true justice” is built through consensus in mediation, and the event closed with a tree plantation drive on the Supreme Court lawns.
