CJI DY Chandrachud raises concern over gender pay gap

IndiaTimes Sunday, 17 December 2023
Despite significant contributions, Indian women, especially from marginalised communities, face disparities in remuneration compared to men. The gender pay gap reflects societal norms, biases, and cultural expectations. Bridging this gap requires policies. The CJI also expressed concern over disability becoming a barrier, denying access to public opportunities. The judiciary in Karnataka was lauded for employing the most people with disabilities among state judiciaries. The Supreme Court's report on accessibility for the disabled highlights challenges and suggestions for improvement.
