There should be Zero tolerance to even the faintest governmental interference in the functioning of our judiciary. As a desperate BJP wants to overpower the Judiciary too, it is all out to corrode and corrupt even the Independence of the Judiciary.
Judicial independence of Judges rests entirely on maintaining an incorruptible detachment from the politicians of the day. There is a need for concerted efforts towards propping up the highest standards of judicial accountability.
The Judiciary should never be manned by persons who are tilted or aligned to any political party. Judges should have the spine to crack down on illegalities done by all politicians, regardless of how high positions they hold or which party they belong to. It has to be ensured that judicial accountability is maintained at all times with every Judge conforming to the highest standards of uprightness and integrity. If Judges cannot independently balance the scales of Justice, the Temples of Justice become pointless, ending up as dens of chicanery and jugglery.
An effective judiciary guarantees fairness in judicial processes and transparency. The Public must be confident that the judiciary is beyond reproach. Transparency is a fundamental component of judicial independence. Any direct or indirect interference by the politicians in the selection, elevation and promotion of Judges or even in their transfer is a threat to the very Independence of the Judiciary.
