28.5.2020 The miseries which the millions of migrant labourers had to face with the imposition of the lockdown, so too its easing no words can adequately describe. It would wrench the hearts of even the most hardened ones. But the question is: could the governments be entirely blamed for the same even while fully accepting that there has been great shortcomings even in Kerala which has managed the Covid pandemic exceedingly well? But the question is: are not these functions falling under the exclusive province of the executive as has been rightly pointed out by Arghya Sen Gupta in his article...

Arun Mishra rejected the request of the Maradu flat owners for some time

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

in Blogs/Articles

20.02.21 Arun Mishra rejected the request of the Maradu flat owners for some time, few days, to vacate their homes after it was ordered to be demolished, stating that not even one minute will be granted. I was witness to that. The press, the government and the political leaders in kerala remained mute. Nobody pointed out that he had no authority to order such demolition. His job was to adjuducate whether the statutory bodies ordering demolition was right or wrong, had it ordered demolition. The statutory authority had only issued a show cause notice which the high court set aside. The...

I agree to a large extent with Justice Gogoi that the justice delivery system in India is ramshackled

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

Mathews J Nedumpara 98205 35428 28.02.2021 I agree to a large extent with Justice Gogoi that the justice delivery system in India is ramshackled. Though I prefer to use a different terminology. It is certainly facing a grave crisis. The question is who is responsible. I cannot comment on the role of the judges and I refrain from doing so. I would only say people like Justice Gogoi have no morale right to lament. It is the so called legal luminaries who destroyed the institution of judiciary. They reduced the absolutely useful tool of stare decisis, nay, precedent to a number game introducing...

The allegation that Justice B S Indrakala, judge of Karnataka High Court gave a bribe of Rs. 8.5 crore for securing the post of Governor is nothing but the tip of the iceberg

Posted by Mathews J Nedumpara

The allegation that Justice B S Indrakala, judge of Karnataka High Court gave a bribe of Rs. 8.5 crore for securing the post of Governor is nothing but the tip of the iceberg. Corruption in judiciary is a reality. It is rampant, maybe even of a greater scale than in other departments of the government. I happen to be back in Kerala High Court after a gap of almost 20 years due to the Covid-19 pandemic. To my utter shock even the Kerala High Court had changed. A number of allegations were brought to my notice. They wanted me to...
