Supreme Court judge, Justice M.R. Shah on Monday said that he was fully satisfied with his performance as both a lawyer and a judge, noting that he was fortunate to get this opportunity to be able to have done something for the society and the nation at large.
Speaking during his retirement function, he said today, as he stood at the Apex Court premises for one last time, he was remembering November 2, 2018, when he stepped in the Apex Court as a judge. He said he had never entered the Supreme court earlier except for once.
As per Justice Shah, the procedure at the Apex Court was entirely different from the High Court. He said it felt like he had entered this Court a few days back only. Before the flight took off, before he could settle on the seat, it was time to land.
He said he enjoyed his journey from court 13 to court 4, from Noida to Delhi, from the House of Commons to the House of Lords. The Apex Court judge said he enjoyed Noida and the court of the House of Commons a lot. He said he enjoyed everything as a Supreme Court judge and performed his duties without fear or favour.
Justice Shah said he would imagine himself in the shoes of the litigant and would try his best to deliver him justice.
Stating that he tried his best not to hurt anyone during his journey, the Supreme Court judge said that whatever he did, he did it for a cause, for the common man and the litigant. Stating that the litigants treated judges as Gods, Justice Shah said everyone from the lawyers to judges, should give their best to deliver justice to them.
