If Justice Dipankar Datta had such strong feelings for Savarkar, he should have recused from hearing the matter in the first place. We want judges to read & apply the law, spare the lectures on what speech is morally right or wrong. Sadly, we don't have recusal rules for judges

Manmohan Singh speech to Parl responding to 26/11. "The forces behind these attacks wanted to destabilize our secular polity, create communal discord & undermine our socio-economic progress...idea of India as a democracy & plural society is at stake...Together we shall prevail".

If we do not hang in together, we will hang seperately. The first thing Indians need to do, is to promote unity and to eschew communal hate. It is easy to beat up or kill an unarmed Hindu or Muslim and to feel avenged but it is very difficult to build a peaceful country where our

Post disclosure of assets by Supreme Court judges there is a lot of excitement about Justice KV Viswanathan’s tax returns. 17 crores tax paid in one year! Well KVV, as he was known at the Bar, was at his peak when he was asked to accept judgeship and in the truest tradition of

Short tenure #CJIs have managed to earn better recognition than long tenure #CJIs in recent years for their accomplishments. The just-retired #CJISanjeevKhanna is no exception. Limited tenure leaves no chance for short tenure #CJIs to leave their mark on the judicial side. But

Will this nudge our SC to course correct?

Exposes itself to a discerning reader

So according to Allahabad High Court, a person can be criminally prosecuted for simply calling Prime Minister a coward but a judge of the same High Court who gave hate speeches will continue to sit on the bench and perform judicial functions despite indictment by Supreme Court?

RS has exclusive mandate under the Judges (Inquiry) Act, 1968, as the requisite number of MPs have already given a notice for the judge's removal. Like our Governors (before the SC's TN Governor judgment), the RS Chairpersons also don't have a timeline for decisions under the

Let us face it. What role do the in-house committees have? Either they give a clean chit to the Judge or ask them to resign, failing which the CJI writes a letter to the President and the PM seeking removal. The in-house committees are a waste of judicial time, as their reports

Absolutely. No judge should be removed without an inquiry committee envisaged under the Judges Inquiry Act, 1968 finding them guilty. In-house committee reports are not a substitute for the statutory committee reports.

#NewColumn 🚨 As three transgender doctors seek the rights promised in 2014, the Supreme Court must decide whether its words were a mandate or a mirage. The Court’s 2014 NALSA judgment—a constitutional beacon of hope—had tried to fill the policy vacuum when it comes to
