Sir,    The
Supreme court and High court judges should  not have sons,
wives and other close relatives working in the bar; I mean
any bar.. Judgs know how to scrach each others back and so
this suggestion.

Dear
India Against Corruption subscribers



IAC shall be submitting its views on appointment of senior
judges / collegium



We would appreciate your crisp suggestions / points for
incorporation

i IAC's suggestions by return reply, under the following
categories:



a) transparency

b) need for eligibility criteria to appoint judges

c) establishment of of a secretariat for the collegium

d) establishing a mechanism for redressing complaints



(NB: Due to very short time, we may not be circulating your

suggestions to the list, but shall read them offline)



PS: At the present time (based on numerous emails to this
list by

esteemed subscribers) a sketch of IAC's POV (open to
modification /

course correction upon feedback)



a) the judiciary (especially the higher judiciary) is
vitiated by corruption



b) judicial appointments are not done by merit or to select
upright

candidates and judges of integrity,



c) the 'collegium' is a rotten and secretive body
which should be done

away with



d) There are no external checks and balances in judicial
appointments

and judiciary has evolved into a self appointing self
sustaining mafia

existing to employ the vast array of lawyers/advocates who
are

essentially parasites and blood-sucking vampires who pay
tribute to

their masters. In such circumstances the litigant public is
denied

"justice".



e) Each and every action of judiciary should be done
publicly, eg.

video streaming over internet etc, and recordings preserved

permanently and be accessible suo-moto and under RTI



f) The SC had an inherent conflict of interest in upholding
the

collegium system.

press reports:



"The suggestions to be submitted to the court should be
under four

categories -- transparency, need for eligibility criteria to
appoint

judges, establishment of a secretariat for the collegium and
evolving

a mechanism of redressing complaints. If a submission does
not qualify

for any of the groups, it can be listed as
"miscellaneous".



The move came a day after the SC said it would consider
suggestions

but ruled out wholesale changes to the existing mechanism of
judges

appointing judges that the top court upheld on October 16
when it

quashed as unconstitutional the National Judicial
Appointments

Commission (NJAC) Act passed by Parliament.



Rohatgi also volunteered to webhost the compilations
submitted to the

bench by additional solicitor general Pinky Anand and senior
advocate

Arvind Dattar, prepared on the basis of suggestions given
by

individuals, including academicians, on the website of the
law

ministry's department of justice.



"Suggestions received by 1700 hours on November 13 shall
be

entertained. No further suggestions will be entertained,"
the bench

noted."
