Good Judges Are Not Being Appointed, Collegium System Not Functioning Properly : Sr Adv Dushyant Dave

Live Law  

Senior Advocate Dushyant Dave, in his interview with Livelaw, made some thought-provoking statements about the functioning of the collegium system. He opined that "good judges are not being appointed" and that the "collegium system is not functioning properly". It may be recalled that last year in November, the Supreme Court expressed disapproval of the 'pick and choose' approach adopted by the central government in selectively accepting names from the collegium resolutions for judges' appointments. I must say with a great sense of pain that Collegium has allowed these good judges to be destroyed.” Adding to this, Dave said that we have great judges, but many appointments are really questionable.
