But the public doesn't know it, okay? There's a lot of work that goes on even after court hours in preparing for a case, in writing a judgment, because that judgment is not going to be applicable only to the two litigants who are there, but it is going to be cited as a precedent and used elsewhere.
Madan LokurGUEST
So if Delhi High Court gives a judgment on a particular provision of law, say the Income Tax Act, the Karnataka High Court may say that, "Yeah, you know, we agree." So the judgment of Delhi High Court will have an impact in Karnataka.
Madan LokurGUEST
Okay.
Madan LokurGUEST
The Karnataka High Court may say, "Sorry, we don't agree with Delhi High Court." Then ultimately the Supreme Court will have to decide which is the correct view.
Madan LokurGUEST
So that analysis, the reasoning, the facts, and the nature of the case is something which the public does not always understand, you know? And what gets highlighted is, uh, a stray remark or a stray incident, you know, and, uh, then it gets blown out of, uh, proportion.
Madan LokurGUEST
So I think, I think it's important for the public to realize that judges work very hard.

Sama KandilHOST
I am Sama Kandil, and today we're gonna talk about Sharan Pawana's story, why the Bengaluru-Mysuru corridor has become Kumaraswamy's latest weapon against Shivakumar government.
Sama KandilHOST
Janata Dal secular state president HD Kumaraswamy placed front page ads in leading national dailies on Sunday, quoting the Karnataka High Court's recent observations to reinforce demands for the state government to take over the long-delayed Bengaluru-Mysuru Infrastructure Corridor Project, or the BMICP, from the private contractor.
Sama KandilHOST
The full page ad saying, "One of the biggest scams in the state of Karnataka," in bold also featured quotes of what it called it all the High Court observations in the case along with key details of the project.
Sama KandilHOST
The union minister demanded that the DK Shivakumar-led Karnataka government immediately stop illegal toll collection by Nandini Infrastructure Corridor Enterprise entrusted with executing an undertaking.
Jayna KothariGUEST
I need to start my litigation career here." So I came back here, and I joined, uh- A big litigation firm here, Ola and Ola, which was, uh, excellent because it gave me a wide, uh, exposure to a wide range of cases, you know, from government cases to regular property matters to, you know, service matters, to everything.
Jayna KothariGUEST
So I did that for a while in the Karnataka High Court, where I could really get familiar with the high court.
Jayna KothariGUEST
Um, and then after about, uh, uh, two years of working with them, I said, "Okay, now I want to start my own practice so that I can do the kind of work that I wanted to do." And, uh, so then I started my own practice, uh, in Bangalore.
Jayna KothariGUEST
Um, and uh, I just got married, so I was...
17 MINS LATER
Jayna KothariGUEST
And then finally, after several years, I think about seven or eight years of challenging government notifications every year, we finally asked the High Court that the central government has a list of identified posts.
Jayna KothariGUEST
In the central government, if you can do these jobs, for example, being a judge in a magistrate's court or in the High Court, do we have judges with disabilities? We don't, right? Because though, uh, positions of judges, uh, have been identified as being capable for people with disabilities, they were never appointed.
Jayna KothariGUEST
So we said, "Why don't, why do we have to do that exercise again?" Uh, if the, if in the central government they are considered to be capable, then why should the state government take a different position? And so then what the g- high court did is that, well, you j- uh, and asked the state government, "Just adopt the central government list." And therefore, the entire central government list of jobs was adopted to apply to equivalent jobs in the Karnataka High Court, and therefore it led to a whole additional range of jo- uh, jobs that could be identified for persons with disabilities and, of course, reserved.
Jayna KothariGUEST
I mean, you know, that led to a lot more positions, but I still have a...
