I don't understand why a line of sentences is so important to be expressed in bold, as if, rest is merely a footnote of what is expressed as a chief mover and sacker. "Headline culture" is a reality today. Only a few readers dare to go beyond headlines to find unimportant desire of journalists, that unconscious apparatus which is hidden beneath important and bold texts. People are often worried and frightened by innumerable options that they safely avoid timid and passive footnotes, which are merely considered as explanatory, and sometimes written for the sake of its preservation from the gaze and touch of curious readers. Twitter must be a child of headline culture which valorises misers of words. People felt too bored to type the complete words, just forget about sentences, and ultimately a few sign words replaced the structural aesthetics of grammarians. Old expressive smiles, sarcasm, irony, and sorrow were replaced by a few emojis, and their dimensions have become literary arts for Kafka couldn't have more proud! Headline culture is just like a bottle of wine with all the elegance, but who knows what is substantial under its outer dimensions. I'm not amazed to know that youth are conscious about their body more than mind or spirit in our age.

Hon'ble Mr. Justice Rohinton Nariman has been truly an exemplar judge and erudite historian, theologian and philologist, a great scholar of music as well as a courageous and meticulous jurist of our country. He did his Master of Laws from Harvard Law School in 1980-81 and taught by one of the finest jurists of the last century, Roberto Unger. He became Senior Advocate in 1993 in the age of 37 and also served as Solicitor General of India in 2011 before he was elevated as a judge of the Supreme Court of India in 2014. He delivered many landmark judgments, including Shreya Singhal v. Union of India. There are a few people with whom time moves too fast, but to count that experience takes ages. Justice Rohinton Nariman is one of those great jurists with whom a meet...
