Just a stray thought. The Collegium presently consists of the honorable CJI and the four seniormost judges. On the judicial side, all judges are equal. On the administrative side, it is effectively the Master of the Roster in charge, although the power to appoint / transfer judges is a shared responsibility. What if the entire Court were to constitute the Collegium. As a highly disciplined group of jurists, an increase in numbers would not by itself lead to confusion or recurrent differences of opinion. One presumes the Collegium today functions by consensus / unanimity since it is a small group. If the entire Court were to perform this function, it could be by preponderant – not simple – majority. Three or four dissenting voices should suffice to give everyone pause. The fact remains that the Collegium exercises awesome power. Some of its decisions raise questions, even amongst retired CJIs. The entire Supreme Court has such forbidding majesty that its decisions could be taken as a divine revelation.
