The Valedictory Session of First Part of the Induction Training Programme (three months) for the newly appointed Civil Judges (Junior Division) was held today at Vivekananda Auditorium of Chhattisgarh State Judicial Academy, Bilaspur, under the esteemed leadership of Hon’ble Shri Justice Ramesh Sinha, Chief Justice High Court of Chhattisgarh & Patron-In-Chief Chhattisgarh State Judicial Academy. Induction Course started from 30th, June 2025 and ended on 26th, September 2025.
Hon’ble the Chief Justice delivered the Valedictory Address and shared his words of wisdom with the trainee Judges. Hon’ble the Chief Justice underlined the significance of integrity, sensitivity, and commitment to constitutional values in judicial functioning and encouraged the young Judges to constantly remain students of law, while discharging their duties with humility and compassion.
Hon’ble The Chief Justice emphasized that Civil Judges are often the first point of contact for citizens seeking justice. The impression of the judiciary that a litigant carries is shaped largely by their conduct in the Courtroom. Courtesy, Punctuality, and Compassion must therefore become integral parts of their Judicial character. At the same time, firmness in upholding the rule of Law is indispensable. A balance of sensitivity and strength is what makes a true Judge. Remember, the robe Judges wear is not merely a uniform; it is a symbol of trust that Society reposes in you.
In Conclusion Hon’ble the Chief Justice urged Civil Judges to Continue to be students of law throughout their careers, for the Law is ever-changing. Let humility and learning guide you, let ethics and fairness anchor you, and let dedication to the Constitution inspire you.
Hon’ble Mrs. Justice Rajani Dubey, Judge, High Court of Chhattisgarh & Chairperson Chhattisgarh State Judicial Academy also graced the occasion.
