NEW DELHI: In an unprecedented move,
four senior most judges of the Supreme Court on Friday+
called a press conference and said the situation in the
top court was "not in order"+
and many "less than desirable" things have taken place.
Unless this institution is preserved, "democracy will not survive in this country," the four judges said.
Justice J Chelameswar, the second senior judge after the Chief Justice of India, said "sometimes administration of the Supreme Court is not in order and many things which are less than desirable have happened in the last few months".
The four judges also wrote a seven-page letter to the
CJI. Here is the full text of the letter:
Justice J Chelameswar.
