Supreme Court judge Surya Kant on Saturday said the availability of legal aid should be made easier, while stressing that the use of technology must be guided by local knowledge, linguistic accessibility and human empathy.Delivering the welcome address at the inaugural function of a national conference on strengthening legal-aid delivery mechanisms here, Justice Kant said the true measure of a justice system is not how swiftly it decides complex cases, but how deeply it touches the lives of ordinary citizens.Looking ahead, we must make legal help easier to obtain.
