Debate on Judicial Appointments and Supreme Court Structure in India
The Indian judiciary's collegium system, established through Supreme Court rulings, faces criticism for lack of transparency, nepotism, and regional biases in judicial appointments. While the system aims to maintain judicial independence, concerns about public confidence persist. Separately, discussions on reforming the Supreme Court's structure highlight its broad appellate role beyond constitutional review, questioning the effectiveness of lower courts and suggesting that structural changes may be needed before focusing on appointments of distinguished jurists under Article 124(3).
