Court orders ignored
The Chief Justice of India (CJI) has reasons to be upset since the government of the day has been impervious to the collegium’s recommendations on the appointments and transfers of judges (Page 1, May 1). The greatness of Indian democracy lies in the fact that no government has ever refused to adhere to judicial verdicts in spite of the fact that judges have no independent means of enforcing these orders. It will be harmful for democracy if any government decides to flout these norms.
