 for having been appointed as the Chief Justice of Nepal. And sir, thank you so much for gracing this occasion. And I am told that this is the first event you are attending post taking over as the Honourable Chief Justice of Nepal. We are very blessed in that sense. Honourable President of Saat Law, Chief Justice Som Tokay, Honourable Justice Kalayam Shreja, President of Saat Law Nepal, Chair for this session. Honourable Somarji, Chairperson of the Constitutional Assembly, Honourable Mr. Thapa, Secretary and General of Saak, Secretariat. Other dignitaries of the dyes, my colleagues from Saat Law in the audience, dignitaries in the audience, Honourable judges in the audience, young law students, ladies and gentlemen. It's a pleasure to get again to be in Nepal. And I must congratulate the organizers of this event, which is Saat Law Nepal, Nepal Law Society, and the International Idea. A great humble applause from the audience. I am also glad to see the openness on the path of Nepal, chapter in Nepal as a goal, as they are seeking to learn from the experience of the legal experts in the region, vis-à-vis their constitution-making process, which definitely deserves congratulations. I am also delighted for a change to see established lawyers, with the opportunity, to express their desire and pain to learn about the concepts and facets of law-making process, ordinarily lords, hardly seek fulfillment. So, this is another step towards openness, to learn from the experience of the letter. And why not? Because in today's civilized society, life and law run side by side. Nobody can live without law, nobody can live without getting affected by that. In fact, a very eminent American lawyer, Joseph Orchard-Squirtz, in the 19th century, he became a paper man. He said that none can live without law, and suddenly, no one can die without it, right from the birth till the departure from this world law plays an important role. Each society's ethical values, social behavior, future aspirations of its people are reflected in its constitution or, in other words, in its legal system. Greater the respect for civility, greater the respect for civic nationalism, and lesser would be the need of normal legal systems. Talking about constitution for instance, there are developed nations, there are civilized nations who are bigger than constitution, partially written constitution, partially unwritten constitution. Then there is the United States of America, and my knowledge, I don't know, I understand it, did somebody work with you? Because a very big constitution, I think, the shortest constitution in the world, which has brought about seven advocates, and not very many amendments have been made to it. And then we have India, which has got a constitution which runs into more than 400 articles, 32 parts,
