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.

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...

Distinction between judgement in rem and personam.

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

in Blogs/Articles

Mathews J. Nedumpara 98205 35428 23.02.2025 Distinction between judgement in rem and personam. Proceedings in rem does not mean that a Court can, by its judgment, affect the rights of a person who is not a party before it. No court has the power to adversely affect the rights of a person who is not before it, no matter whether the proceedings are in rem or in personam. The perception that a person’s rights can be adversely affected without him on the party array for the reason that the proceedings in question is in rem, is a misconception. It only means that where a...

ONOE Bill passes muster on the basic structure!

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

in Blogs/Articles

Mathews J. Nedumpara 9820535428 12.07.2025 ONOE Bill passes muster on the basic structure! In today's Times of India, I happened to read that ex-CJIs Khehar and Chandrachud have reportedly told the JPC headed by P. P. Chowdhury that the ONOE Bill passes muster on the basic structure. I am afraid to say that I could not control my anger at the nation being fooled by a few "legal luminaries", senior lawyers, and judges uttering the mantra "basic structure" to subserve their vested interests—nay, to usurp position and power and yet escape with impunity. Using the words "basic structure", they treated Parliament as an inferior...
