Now BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad has taken a dig at Congress over the letter written by 600 lawyers to the CJI. He has alleged that big people of Congress are involved in this matter. His approach towards the judiciary has always been very critical.
Earlier PM Modi had attacked
He said that the judiciary of India is an extraordinary institution and it has full right to take decisions as per its wish on any issue. Earlier, PM Modi also supported the concerns raised by the senior lawyer and said that intimidation is the culture of Congress.
Really very sad- Ravi Shankar Prasad
BJP MP said that this is really a sad case. Congress dignitaries included. He has always taken a very serious approach towards the judiciary. It depends on what type of decisions are taken. These are the same people who once talked about a committed judiciary. These are the same people who appreciated the overreach of judges by the Congress government in the 1970s. The Indian Judiciary is an extraordinary institution of which we are proud.
What was written in the letter?
Let us tell you that the CJI has received this letter at a time when the court is hearing high-profile cases of corruption related to opposition leaders. In a letter to the CJI, the lawyers have expressed concern that vested interests misrepresent the so-called golden age of mob courts and question the current practice of the courts. They deliberately give statements on court decisions for political gain. The letter said it is worrying that some lawyers defend politicians during the day and try to influence the judge through the media at night. It is this group that has devised the entire theory of bench fixing which is not only humiliating and disgusting but also an attack on the honor and reputation of the court.
