Justice Ujjal Bhuyan Calls for Transparency in Collegium Judicial Appointments
Supreme Court Justice Ujjal Bhuyan has urged greater transparency in the collegium system for judicial appointments, criticizing the lack of reasons provided in recent resolutions.

Bhuyan emphasized the need for informed public debate and disclosure to uphold judicial integrity and prevent the elevation of unsuitable candidates.
