Chief Justice of India (CJI) Dipak Misra Sunday urged the people not to remain obsessed with litigations and make effort to see if they can be solved otherwise. "You are welcome to litigate. But do not romance with litigation," Misra, who is due to retire next month, said. He, however, added that courts welcome people to litigate if they have genuine grievances.

"I do not suggest for a moment that you should not fight for a cause. But when the cause is small and can be solved otherwise, then solve it. Because that also serves the purpose of access to justice," Misra said. Misra was speaking after laying the foundation stone of the permanent building of Odisha State Legal Services Authority (OSLSA) and inaugurating the legal assistance establishment Nyaya Sanjog in all the 30 districts of the state. Misra also inaugurated the computerisation of 150 School Legal Literacy Clubs spread across the state.
