Kiren Rijiju: few retired judges 'part of the anti-India gang' trying to turn judiciary against govt

He again criticised the collegium system to appoint judges, saying it is a result of the "misadventure" of the Congress party.

Law Minister Kiren Rijiju on Saturday claimed that a few retired judges and some activists who are "part of the anti-India gang" are trying to make the Indian judiciary play the role of the opposition party.
He again criticised the collegium system to appoint judges, saying it is a result of the "misadventure" of the Congress party.
The minister was speaking at the India Today Conclave, where Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud later defended the Collegium system, saying "not every system is perfect but this is the best system we have developed" and the "object was to protect the independence of the judiciary, which is a cardinal value".
Rijiju also hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi for his remarks in London on democracy in India, saying the person who speaks the most says he is not allowed to speak.
"Anti-India forces in India and outside India, they use the same language - democracy is in danger, human rights are non-existent in India. What this anti-India gang says, the same language is used by Rahul Gandhi," the minister alleged.

CJI Chandrachud's latest remarks on formation of collegium for appointment of judges

Speaking at the India Today Conclave, in 2023, the CJI said the judiciary has to be protected from outside influences if it has to be independent.

Not every system is perfect but this is the best system available, Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud said on Saturday while defending the Collegium system of judges appointing judges, a major bone of contention between the government and judiciary.
Speaking at the India Today Conclave, 2023, the CJI said judiciary has to be protected from outside influences if it has to be independent.
"Not every system is perfect but this is the best system we have developed. But the object was to protect the independence of the judiciary, which is a cardinal value. We have to insulate the judiciary from outside influences if the judiciary has to be independent," Chandrachud said.
The CJI also responded to Law Minister Kiren Rijiju voicing displeasure over the Supreme Court Collegium revealing the government's reasons for not approving the names recommended by it for appointment as judges of constitutional courts.
"What is wrong about having a difference in perception? But, I have to deal with such differences with a sense of robust constitutional statesmanship. I do not want to join issues with the law minister, we are bound to have differences of perceptions," the CJI said.

Once they take oath early next week, the strength of the apex court will go up to 32 judges.

Five judges were appointed to the Supreme Court on Saturday with the Centre clearing the names recommended by the Collegium on December 13 last year.
Law Minister Kiren Rijiju tweeted to announce the appointment of Justice Pankaj Mithal, Chief Justice, Rajasthan High Court; Justice Sanjay Karol, Chief Justice, Patna High Court; Justice P V Sanjay Kumar, Chief Justice, Manipur High Court; Justice Ahsanuddin Amanullah of Patna High Court; and Justice Manoj Misra of Allahabad High Court as apex court judges.
Once they take oath early next week, the strength of the apex court will go up to 32 judges.
At present the top court is functioning with 27 judges, including the Chief Justice of India. Its sanctioned strength, including the CJI, is 34.
Their appointments come amidst strong observations by a Supreme Court bench questioning the delay on part of the government in appointing and transferring judges based on the recommendations of the SC Collegium.

A senior government functionary said the five appointments have nothing to do with the bench's observation and were made after the Cente took a considered decision.
The appointments came in due course, he added.&nbsp;

The Supreme Court has come down heavily on Centre&nbsp;over a large number of vacancies in tribunals in&nbsp;the country. Issuing a notice to the Centre giving it a week to fill the vacancies, Chief Justice NV Ramana&nbsp;said that the court feels that the govt has no respect for the court.
Justice Ramana&nbsp;added that the govt was testing its patience by not making the required appointments in the tribunals.&nbsp;
Saying that the Supreme Court was upset with the govt but did not want any confrontation, the Chief Justice reminded the Centre of the speedy approvals and appointments for top court judge and asked why nothing was being done to gill vacancies in tribunals.&nbsp;
The Centre had last month approved names of 9 judges for elevation to the Supreme Court.&nbsp;

The Centre has approved all nine names recommended by the Supreme Court Collegium for appointment to the top court, which includes three women judges.
Among the recommended names, Justice BV Nagarathna of the Karnataka high court, could go on to become the country&rsquo;s first woman Chief Justice, for just over a month &mdash; from September 25 to October 29, 2027.
Justice Nagarathna is among the three women judges whose names were cleared by the SC collegium and have now been approved by the government.
She started as a lawyer in Bengaluru and was appointed as an additional judge in the HC in February 2008. Two years later, she was made a permanent judge.
In 2012, justice Nagarathna delivered a judgment emphasising on the need to regulate electronic media. &ldquo;While truthful dissemination of information is an essential requirement of any broadcasting channel, sensationalism in the form of &lsquo;Breaking News&rsquo;, &lsquo;Flash News&rsquo; or in any other form must be curbed,&rdquo; she wrote in her judgment.
The current strength of the Supreme Court is 24. With the addition of nine judges, there will still be one vacancy in the top court.
