The news “CBI indicts Supreme Court Ex-Judge,23 others in PF Scam” indicates only tip of the iceberg. I have been highlighting the dirt and slush since long. My blogs Law Minister act fast to save the system and Law Minister fine tunes judicial system etc. are tiny steps in that direction. If a bureaucrat commits misconduct his actions are subject to scrutiny by various agencies including the judiciary. But an errant judge in harness is invincible. That is why despite several cases of misconducts no judge could be punished. We have only one or two instances when action could be taken only after their retirement.
Now the disturbing news is that the Centre is mulling to increase the retirement-age of judges without safeguards.
