The Supreme Court must seek applications through various Media agencies including News Papers. The basic minimum requirement, which can not be complied with must be part of qualifying requirement. Names of agencies, like NIA/ IB/ CBI/ local police etc whose clearance is necessarily required must be part of the requirements and should be clearly described in the advertisement. The ACRs of those from judiciary and also about his character from his colleagues, and character verification from local Bar Council for practicing advocates should also be required. When the applicant clears all these requirements, he may be considered by first law ministry and then by committee of judges. This will require complete transparency. If a person is not considered or any relaxation in above is done it should be made public on its own without seeking information under the RTI Act, 2005. more

Those who are benefited and continue to get it, oppose every change in the system. The changes should be on the lines suggested by Sri Ashok Lal and the entire process should be published time to time on website, so that the facts mentioned therein can be verified by the citizens who may throw more light on the candidates aspiring to become judges. Next, yes, there is need for proportional representation even in judiciary for an inclusive society. I have filed a case before the High Court at Hyderabad seeking implementation of Article 16-4A and 16-4B dealing with fundamental rights of SC/STs and the case is posted every Monday at Sl number 100 and above never to reach hearing. Thus in AP and Telangana there is deprivation of Fundamental Rights to S C and ST employees and the PIL 148/14 filed more than one year ago never reaches finality just because the others do not bother about the rights of SC and STs. Therefore inclusive representation in judiciary is absolutely the need of the hour more

Lobbing is a national problem. You may also call it nexus. So strong are these lobbies that they influence policies of ministries and the govt. Many lobbies the got exposed in the recent past. Those who strengthen lobbies hardly get exposed. more

Constitution makers did not feel it necessary to provide for reservation in Supreme Court and High Courts.Now Mr.Ponnusamy wants to create caste based judiciary. Let us try to improve the existing system rather than creating new problems. more

The selections of IAS, IPS,IRS, IFS are made by UPSC. The other staff are through SSC are recruited. For Banks there is RRB etc. Why for the judges how it can be judges alone? There is something wrong in this concept itself. Parliament, President, Judiciary, NGO nominees should be on the board of selection. The names being considered should be placed on web page to furnish the incriminating information about those who are under consideration. The misdeeds will be exposed by several erstwhile colleagues, the ex-clients, village people, classmates, neighbours etc. After the complaints are received, the verification should be done by Police as usual. Then their names should be considered by a team representing the interests of all the organs of the Constitution. At no cost the hereditary by judges be permitted by selecting the future judges by the judges themselves. The High Courts and district courts atleast in both Telugu states are flooded with same family members. You can see many employees are related to each other who secured employment through a judge who recruited his men. Thus the courts are full of lobbies as far as staff are concerned. Outside agencies should be involved in the recruitment to have a transparent and open administration in courts more
