The Judicial System of India

India needs a vibrant judicial system to meet the many faceted Constitutional and legal situations. A system is itself a conglomeration of various set ups. In the present judicial set ups in our country different judicial forums including quasi-judicial forums, judges and advocates are playing very important roles in redressal of various grievances of the people and the country. For maintaining the efficiency and effectiveness of the legal-judicial system in the country there is need of a large number of  brilliant, dedicated, fair and justice loving advocates and judicial officers. India lacks efficient and strong legal-judicial infrastructure. There is lack of burgeoning number of well equipped legal institutions, judicial forum, meritorious advocates and committed judges. In lower judiciary unlike the higher judiciary the judges are appointed through the competitive examinations conducted by the respective bodies of the concerned states. To be a judge is a very herculean task. It requires detail studies and practice (wherever applicable) in the court. Those who have mission to be a judge are doing hard labour in preparation of the competitive examinations. Through this blog attempt is being taken to collect and assemble the required essential materials for sure success in the judicial-legal services competitive examinations. Now legal-judicial services are very lucrative. The large number of concerned competent, competitive and ambitious bidders each and every year are coming to the fray and making their positions desired. Some ambitious aspirants lag behind due to the improper advice, insufficient material, improper guidelines and unconducive environment. It is hoped that this blog would be a healing touch for those who lag behind in such career buildings.
