TUMKUR, OCT. 17. The Judge of the Karnataka High Court, N. Kumar, said on Saturday that law was supreme in a democracy. Speaking after inaugurating a legal literacy campaign organised by the Karnataka Legal Services Authority and the Jagadguru Renukacharya College of Law, Bangalore, he said it was an irony that many elected representatives violated law. They were expected to set an example for others to follow by abiding law. Society would face trouble if people who had good knowledge of law abused it. Stating that education had immense value, he, however, regretted that educated persons who were known for honesty and integrity were being neglected in all spheres of life. The knowledge of law was an essential prerequisite for a dignified life. People should know law to live in peace and harmony, he said. Mr. Kumar said advocates had a duty of safeguarding the interests of their clients. They should not hesitate to render free service to the poor and the disabled.
