What makes me quite uncomfortable about the elevation of Justice Sanjeev Khanna as CJI is that he along with Justice Arun Misra sat on a Saturday to be a part of a bench headed by Justice Gogoi and declared that the complaint against Justice Gogoi by the female staff constitutes to be the “gravest of threat to the independence of judiciary

Letter to the Prime Minister and others forewarning them the hearing of the NJAC case is a mockery and the outcome is a fait accompli, that urgent remedial steps be taken to avert a fraud on the constitution.

JUDICIAL IMMUNITY/TORTIOUS LIABILITY

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

in Blogs/Articles

Mathews J Nedumpara 98205 35428 23.06.2024. JUDICIAL IMMUNITY/TORTIOUS LIABILITY “Rex non potest peccare”, namely that the king can do no wrong, is a fundamental principle of law. Stated in simple terms, the king is not liable for any action of his agents and servants. This concept, over the centuries, was much diluted with many an exception being accepted. Today, except judicial function, the king, namely, the sovereign, is liable for the tortious action of his delegate/trustee/servant. The sovereign immunity is not absolutely available even against the armed forces. The concept of absolute immunity which the judges of the superior courts in India enjoy and assert...

No recovery against MSMEs without attempt at revival as provided by law.

Mathews J. Nedumpara 98205 35428 11.09.2024. Economists believe that in a decade or two India is going to be the world’s third largest economy. Our country, once starved for foreign exchange, now probably attracts more foreign exchange than any other country. The reason is the demographic advantage we have. Most of the developed world, Europe, Japan, China, are aging. We are the youngest country in the world in the sense that 60% of the population is within the ages of 20 to 60, the work force. However, many economists are not as optimistic as others. The reason is that the majority of the population...

Kinship Chart of the judges of the Supreme Court of India

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

in Blogs/Articles

Mathews J Nedumpara 98205 35428 5.02.2025 Kinship Chart of the judges of the Supreme Court of India The preparation of the chart has been no mean task, for no official data is available. The data has been collected from members of the bar across the country who volunteered information. The chart is not complete. It may also contain certain inaccuracies. However, for all practical purpose the chart does paint complete picture of the nepotism and favoritism in the appointment of judges and the designation of lawyers as senior advocates. The data above would undoubtedly show that there can hardly be a case where the...

CHART ON HOW JUDGES IN INDIA ARE APPOINTED

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

in Open Letters

https://x.com/NedumparaJ/CHARTS ON HOW JUDGES IN INDIA ARE APPOINTED See the chart, nobody would have ever thought it was 100 percent progeny and kinship and connections. It is difficult, if not impossible, to find out even one case of exception. Judges in India are appointed solely on considerations of kinship and connections. This chart is being further updated as information which was not earlier available is now forthcoming. Team NLC (National Lawyers Campaign For Judicial Transparency and Reforms)...

Nothing is more laughable and contrary to the elementary principles of jurisprudence than the so-called basic structure theory, based on which the Supreme Court has rendered hundreds of judgements and even quashed the NJAC.

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

Mathews J Nedumpara 98205 35428 It is known even to a law student that only a person aggreived, namely, one whose rights are infringed, alone can go to a Court, and where the fundamental rights are infringed, one could go straight to the Supreme Court under Article 32. Without pleading infringement of a right, no one can go to a court. This is a universal principle. But the celebrated Kesavananda Bharati case laid down that one can go to a court without any of his right, much less fundamental rights, being infringed. Even if Kesavananda Bharati does not say so, it is...
