Judiciary Row | "Respect For Judiciary Is Paramount'': Top Government Sources Amid Row The respect for the judiciary is paramount and all pillars of democracy are working in tandem for a Viksit Bharat, top government sources have said. The statement appears to be a balancing act after Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar and a section of BJP leaders targeted the Supreme Court and top judges took note. "Respect for the judiciary is paramount. All pillars of democracy are working in tandem for a Viksit Bharat. The judiciary and the legislature are two sides of the same coin," a highly-placed source in the government told NDTV.
