Mangaluru, Mar 10: Chief Justice of Kerala high court Antony Dominic on Saturday March 10 visited the Bishop’s House at Kodialbail here.

Fr Dr Aloysius Paul D’Souza, bishop of Mangaluru, received Justice Antony Dominic with bouquets. A felicitation event followed, where a large number of priests, nuns of various congregations and lay leaders were present.

Welcoming Justice Antony Dominic, the bishop said, "Justice Antony Dominic had visited Mangaluru earlier when the diocesan lay leaders’ guild was held here. We feel proud to receive him as the chief justice of Kerala high court. As he had pursued his law degree from SDM College, he has a special connection with this city. Kerala, which is known as ‘God’s Own Country’, has dedicated many saints to the Church. Several bishops and archbishops serve the Church in various parts of the world. Their service has brought real name and fame for the community.



"Justice Antony Dominic is one of the jewels of our community. Being a true follower of the Indian Constitution, he fought for justice when he was a lawyer in lower courts and high court. We are honoured to have him here," he said.

Addressing the gathering, Justice Antony Dominic said, "I am proud to be a member of the Catholic community. I am the first chief justice from the Catholic community in Kerala. I completed by law degree from SDM College. During my college days itself, I had noticed the service of Mangaluru diocese in the society.

"I chose this profession accidentally. But when I realised that it was God's plan, I started working hard. Along with knowledge and hard work, we need God’s blessings to succeed. Without His blessings, we cannot do anything.

"I am thankful for the welcome which is a real surprise for me. I feel nice to be honoured by a wise community," he said.

Msgr Denis Moras Prabhu, vicar general, Mangaluru diocese, M P Noronha, secretary, pastoral council, Mangaluru diocese, and P D Sebastian, former principal, SDM College were present.

    Kerala has always been our best and vibrant neighbor with all the social, intellectual and cultural advantage. The People of Kerala have always been forward looking and very supportive in all that we in Mangalore accomplished for which we have always remained grateful to Kerala, the truly known as "God's Green country".

    Being in the close neighborhood, we have always enjoyed the benefit of Kerala's Economic and Educational advantage. There is a great deal to learn from Kerala, and also a great deal to share.

    People of Kerala have always been enterprising. Honoring Chief Justice of Kerala, Mr. Anthony Dominic is truly a deserving thought and gesture that will solidify our relations with our good neighbor even further.

    "I am proud to be a member of the Catholic community. I am the first chief justice from the Catholic community in Kerala. I feel nice to be honoured by a wise community". I consider the Chief Justice as the jewel of society. Responsible people adoring constitutional positions shall uphold secular principles to conduct in public to build and reinforce confidence of people in the system. Ceaser's wife shall be above suspicion.
