Judicial overreach risks unsettling power balance, says Justice Kant

Justice Surya Kant cautioned against judicial overreach, emphasizing the importance of restraint and facilitating democratic dialogue rather than supplanting the legislature. CJI B R Gavai, echoing similar concerns, warned against judicial activism turning into 'judicial terrorism,' highlighting the challenges posed by social media's influence on public perception and the judiciary's independence.
