In order to address gender stereotyping, the judiciary has recently emphasized the use of gender-sensitive language in courtrooms to prevent victim-blaming. Under CJI D.Y. Chandrachud, the SC released a <\/span>Handbook on Combating Gender Stereotypes<\/span><\/i>.<\/span> It instructed judges to stop using derogatory terms like “keep,” “fallen woman,” or “concubine,” and instead use neutral terms like “woman” or “partner.”
\nHowever, the Supreme Court under CJI Surya Kant has moved to “fine-tune” these guidelines. While acknowledging the need for sensitivity, the Court has tasked the <\/span>National Judicial Academy (NJA)<\/span><\/b> to create more “practical” training modules for High Court and District judges to ensure sensitivity isn’t just a “sermon” but a practiced skill in every trial.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In this context, it is important to understand the broader concept of gender justice.<\/p>\n
