SC: Trial Judges Should Take Participatory Role in Trial & Not Act as Mere Tape Recorders - (06 May 2024)

LAW OF EVIDENCE

Courts have to take a participatory role in trial and not act as mere tape recorders to record whatever is being stated by the witnesses. The judge has to monitor the proceedings in aid of justice.
