Chief Justice of India (CJI) N.V. Ramana on July 30 said a constitutional republic shall thrive only when its citizens are aware of what their Constitution envisages.
He emphasised that every individual must be made aware of their rights and duties, and that it should be the endeavour of the law graduates to explain to the people the constitutional provisions in simpler terms.
Addressing the fifth convocation of Hidayatullah National Law University (HNLU) Raipur at a hotel in Raipur, he also termed law as an instrument of social change and said law school education must turn graduates into social engineers.
