This is not confrontation but only differences which are inevitable in the largest democracy in the world."The Union Law minister said that the central government would support the judiciary to be independent and added that the bench and the bar are the two sides of the same coin.He said that one cannot work without the other and added that courts should have proper decorum and conducive atmosphere.

Rijjiju said, "In India, each judge is hearing 50 to 60 cases a day and if I had to deal with so many cases, mental pressure would be tremendous."He said that due to the heavy influx of cases, there were criticisms that judges were not able to deliver justice and added that this was not true.The minister pointed out that even as cases were disposed of faster, the number of cases that were coming up for hearing was higher. He said that the only solution was to strengthen the Indian judiciary and to have better infrastructure and better mechanism.He called upon all the courts to use Tamil language in all court proceedings in the state and added that with the use of technological advancements, Tamil which was a classical language can one day be even used in Supreme Court of India.The minister also said that his ministry was developing a common core vocabulary where Indian languages will have certain common usages, that are purely technical in nature.
