Abstract

Judicial institutions based on democratic principles are the fundamental basis for the protection and preservation of human rights. Not only is judicial review necessary, but the independence of this organ of government is also important. Freedom must ensure the integrity of the decision-making process. If the decision is not fair, the people cannot receive justice. In addition to independence, the accountability and transparency of the judiciary are also necessary. Without accountability, transparency and freedom, justice will remain public. Justice is one of the most important goals of freedom. Justice is the fundamental goal of law. Justice is crucial to the success of any democracy because public injustice ultimately leads to dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction with the government or leaders and leads to resignation from the state. Judicial independence cannot be separated from the accountability of judges for their work. Judges are human beings and work in accordance with human nature. Judges are not exempt from institutional oversight mechanisms. Independent decision-making aims to achieve the required standards of transparency and accountability^[1].

Keywords: justice, good governance, transparent decision-making in India, accountability.
