'8 judges were junior to me': Justice Abhay S. Oak on his SC appointment and state quotas.

Описание: In an interview, a retired Supreme Court justice called for a reconsideration of the process for transferring High Court judges, noting that 35 such transfers had occurred within three months. The speaker highlighted that seniority is not the sole criterion for judicial appointments to the Supreme Court, citing personal experience where judges junior in all-India seniority were appointed before them due to a state quota system. The discussion also touched upon the need to balance transparency with the privacy of candidates during collegium deliberations, especially for lawyers who are not elevated and must return to their practice. Concerns were raised about incomprehensible judgments and the necessity for a comprehensive study before labelling a judge as incompetent, considering factors beyond mere statistics. #justiceabhaysoak #supremecourt #collegium #indianjudiciary #judgetransfers #judicialappointments #judicialreforms #lawandjustice #highcourt #transparency #accountability #indiatoday #anishamathur #rdindiatoday #judiciaryexecutive
