Changed reality for Modi govt in its 3rd innings is by no means rise of a new phenomenon. It's a return to old normal where even majorities had to routinely wrestle with storied million mutinies.
What a nonsensical, crappy piece from Alok Prasanna Kumar! He writes “Specific grievances were raised on the manner in which sensitive cases were being listed, as if to ensure a certain outcome. ” So he is suggesting and agreeing that by listing cases with certain individuals, outcomes can be affected. If that is so, what is the point in blaming just those few individuals (justices); it is the whole system that has become dubious and needs an overhaul. Next he blurts “Such brazen defiance has been condoned, and even encouraged — Misra even prevented another bench of the Supreme Court from taking judicial notice of the government’s intransigence.” Excuse me, “brazen defiance” and “government’s intransigence”? What have you been smoking Alok? Is the govt to automatically approve whoever is recommended by the collegium unquestioningly? Does the govt have a role in judicial appointments at all or it is the lordships of judiciary that decide everything including who to appoint, promote, transfer at will, with no oversight or approval of any other wing of our democracy? You are seeing no wrongs in the way judiciary has been conducting itself, yet you pick up cudgels against Justice Misra. Perhaps you are a foot soldier of the opposition parties.
The second letter written by Justice Chelameshwer has much to say and again highlighted the trench that has been widened in the law officers of the Apex Court. What Mr. Prasanna had said that CJI Misra must ensure that the functioning of the judiciary must not be hampered and I am in full agreement with him. The latest controversy with regard to the elevation Judge Bhatt of Karnataka makes this case more clear. How can a CJ of HC initiates the proceedings against the judge whose name has been cleared by the collegium of the SC. CJI Misra must have taken this into account. His credibility wouldn’t be come in question if he had recused himself from medical council case. That deteriorated more.
Mr. Virag Gupta’s remark that CJI is hearing the Aadhar and Babri cases and this could benefit the current regime is highly objectionable. He is himself accusing the CJI while defending him. What should we infer from this statement?
The way Judiciary has been dragged into the politics of opportunities has caused to this institution.
