Judges should take part in recreational activities: CJI

“The working hours of judges are long and the nature of (their) work is very stressful. All judges should participate in a recreational activity and make it a habit. Recreation is needed to recharge them. High court judges are participating in this event in large numbers. It shows that they are conscious about their health and well-being,” the CJI said.

Union Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal, Union Minister of Parliamentary Affairs Kiren Rijiju and several other judges attended the ceremony.

The two-day championship is being organised by former international badminton player Abantika Deka at the Thyagaraj Sports Complex in the national capital.

The closing ceremony and prize distribution will be presided over by former CJI BR Gavai, along with Justice Vikram Nath on Sunday.
