Remove fear of Collegium among judges: Ex-SC judge

The Quint  

By Sumit Saxena New Delhi, Nov 30 Former Supreme Court Justice Madan B. Lokur says key challenges before the newly appointed Chief Justice S.A. Bobde will be to remove the fear of the Collegium from among the judges. "The judges have nothing to fear but fear itself," said Justice Lokur in response to a query as to how can being judges of the High Court and Supreme Court become an attractive proposition. Justice Lokur emphasized that expectations are high when it comes to the judges of the Supreme Court and also on each judge of various High Courts. Responding to a query, can the Chief Justice set an example by taking an honest decision as per law, and having it trickle down to the lowest level, Lokur said: "It is not only the CJI who has to set an example -- it is every judge in the Supreme Court and each High Court.
