Judiciary not averse to criticism but uninformed assertion: Supreme Court in NCERT order

The Supreme Court stated that criticism of the judiciary is acceptable through proper channels. Fair and informed critique is vital for institutional accountability and self-correction. The court closed proceedings on NCERT's Class 8 textbook content regarding judicial corruption. The controversial chapter was replaced after revisions suggested by an expert panel. The apex court emphasized responsible discourse over uninformed assertions in public discourse.
