💨 Abstract

The article discusses the need for a jury system in India to balance codified laws with societal values, as demonstrated by the Luigi Mangione jury nullification case in the U.S. The author argues that laws should adapt to serve humanity and uphold justice, citing legal philosopher Sir John Salmond and the Mahabharata. The jury system, representing the collective conscience, can help restore dharma, or righteousness, in the legal framework.
