According to the same news portal, CJI DY Chandrachud told Bar & Bench that the initiative is aimed at raising awareness among Supreme Court staff. He added that such activities, though often unpublicised, are part of wider efforts to assist staff, including the recently launched round-the-clock Ayurvedic clinic for their treatment and comfort. The film screening also provides an opportunity for staff to connect with each other.
