53 years. That is how long Sopan Narsinga Gaikwad fought for a piece of land he bought in 1968. 💔⚖️
He started the legal battle at age 55. He won in the trial court, lost in the High Court, and waited 27 years for an appeal that was eventually dismissed. At 108 years old, he finally knocked on the doors of the Supreme Court.
In a heartbreaking twist of fate, on the very day the Supreme Court agreed to hear his case, his lawyer had to inform the bench that Sopan had passed away. "Justice delayed is justice denied" isn't just a quote; it was Sopan’s reality. A harsh indictment of the delays plaguing our judicial system.
