The Lady Justice, the Roman goddess of justice, is an allegorical personification of the moral force in judicial system. The personification of justice, balancing the scales of truth and fairness dates back to ancient Egypt and the Goddess Maat and later Isis. Her modern iconography, which adorns the courtrooms, conflates the attributes of several goddesses.
Chandigarh, August 3The Lady Justice depicts justice as equipped with three symbols; a sword symbolising the court’s coercive power, a human scale weighing competing claims in each hand and a blindfold indicating impartiality.
