The Brave Pedestrian

Is Supreme Court shielding INSANE JUDGES? Did a bench headed by CJI Dattu rule against giving RTI information about judges' medical expenses on Thursday, to prevent the public from knowing which judges take prescription-drugs for MENTAL ILLNESSES? These judges may arguably be impeached on grounds of being unable to discharge their duties because of "unsound mind".

Or Alzheimer's disease? Or Bipolar Disorder? It is statistically impossible to have a 100% perfect population of judges. Not having a mechanism for weeding out the nutty ones means inflicting defective judgments on the unsuspecting and defenseless citizens of India! Warm Regards, Krishnaraj Rao 9821588114 Mumbai

In the face of continuous provocation by Markandeya Katju, why is Chief Justice Dattu silent and passive? if there is no substance in the retired SC judge's allegations, why isn't any action being taken against him? Why no Contempt of Court so far? Through his blog, http://justicekatju.blogspot.in/, Katju has been continually baiting Dattu, the establishment and also mainstream journalists for not investigating the issue based on his documents. It is easy to write this off as Katju's attention-seeking behaviour. But let us look deeper. His allegations are that the Chief Justice of India is a blatantly corrupt man who has amassed wealth by currying favour with the government, and by breaking laws. Can we as a nation afford to take such allegations lightly? If these allegations are true, impeach the Chief Justice of India. And if they are frivolous and unsubstantiated, then haul Katju (along with other critics like myself) over the coals. Let justice be seen to be done...

Amazing how easily courts grant stay orders for the asking! Higher judiciary often OBSTRUCTS IMPLEMENTATION of laws, rules etc, and enables offenders to continue "under cover of the judiciary's robe". Like  ·  Comment  ·  Share
