This was echoed in the statement of the Chief Justice of India, who in his National Law Day 2007 speech, said, "There is a lot of misinformation in the media about the state of the judiciary and the status of administration of justice. Propriety demands that the judiciary speaks through its judgments. Yet democracy demands that information remains at the root of effective judicial administration. In this spirit, I strive to put before people all dimensions of the administration of justice, and redeem their faith in the judicial system."

The key aspects of the workshop will be to stress the importance of the public's `right to know', also the media's responsibility to inform in liberal democracies, constitutional status of media freedom, its scope and limitations, independence of judiciary and the elements of fair trial, contempt of court, objective and scope of reporting judicial proceedings, matters of sub judice, impact of individual rights, administration of justice, and social expectation of rule of law and purity of justice.

A few legal luminaries and eminent members from the Editors Guild, Press Council of India, Indian Law Institute and National Legal Service Authority will take classes to train the journalists.
