The Judge erredBy: Dr Jayadev | Monday , 6 Jul '09 21:41:06 PM Reply | Forward Respected high court judge ought not to have created a drama in court by saying that some minister tried to influence him.

Indian Judiciary is not the same.By: Shantilal Hajeri | Monday , 6 Jul '09 16:04:25 PM Reply | Forward I am not at all surprised by the news of The allegation that Mr.A Raja influenced the High Court Judge,Justice R. Reghupathy. Becuase this is neither the first incident nor will it be the last incident. Politicians influencing and interfereing in every aspect of Judiciary and executive is an open secret. Judiciary is not a holy cow either. Whole system is rotten. It is like taking a glass of wter from the sea and saying the water is salty. I only pray Lord Krishna to have his promised recarnation to finish the guilty.
Indian judiciary is not that saneBy: Chandrakant Marathe | Monday , 6 Jul '09 10:39:51 AM Reply | Forward Like all the other institutions in India even Indian judiciary is not sane. We all know how much corruption exists in the lower courts. Even at the highest levels such as high courts and supreme court, a lot of manupulative practices are evident. Government protects the mighty and rich and judiciary under the garb of non proactive and there fore neutral also protects the rich and powerful. The general public is helpless in this matter. It is the powerful lawyers turned politicians and are genuinly interested in making India a sane society can only help by their activism.
