Jammu and Kashmir Deputy Chief Minister Surinder Kumar Choudhary praised India's judiciary for its independent and fair decisions, highlighting the importance of judiciary being a pillar of democracy.

Choudhary commented on issues like the Anti-Corruption Bureau's investigation into his brother's assets, urging a fair probe. He lamented political campaigns that focus on imprisoning opponents rather than addressing core issues, calling for elections to be fought on development and unemployment.
