Part VI: Is JJ the Maa Ganga for Indian corruption/financial irregularities, that every financial irregularity/corruption gets washed away from INDIA (right from 1947 upto now) with just one judgement against 66 crore and denial of bail??? Does INDIA try to wash away its corruption/financial irregularities and create a good image in front of the International Society with one single Judgement on a paltry meagre sum of Indian Rupees 66 crore and denial of bail when Quote Who will check the judiciary? What if the ideal value is the wrong value? - Judiciary is the highest level in a countrys structural food chain. - It is the most sacred of all institutions and overrides all other institutions. - Indian judiciary is virtually unchecked and been given a free reign. - It is virtually impossible for common man to have enough formal evidence to accuse a judge in general, and that of the higher judiciary in particular, of corruption. - No transparency: Judiciary has a special immunity from RTI Act when it comes to judicial appointments. - A survey by Centre for Media Studies found that more than 77% of public feels Indian judiciary is corrupt. When such a big portion of public has lost faith in the highest institution in the country, judiciary cant be treated as untouchable. - No working mechanism to impeach a member of higher judiciary. Impeaching a judge requires 2/3rd majority in the parliament. - Anyone who has enough power or money or influence, can resort to the corrupt judiciary, when they get caught. - The number of judges to a million people in India is one of the least in the world. This leads to a long wait for justice, which alone is enough to deter a lot of people from seeking it. - Different levels of refuge - If panchayat doesnt work, go to high court. If high court doesnt work, go to Supreme court. This kind of self-deprecating hierarchy is part of the problem.
