At a time when Justice AP shah has declined to accept any post-retirement posting, propriety demands that the concerned collegium-member should also resign to settle personal scores without himself being at high post in Indian judiciary.
IT REFERS to shocking media-reports that elevation of retired Chief Justice of Delhi Justice AP Shah could be stalled by just one member of Supreme Court collegiums. What happens if the concerned senior collegium-member stalling elevation of AP Shah to Supreme Court happens to be Chief Justice of India by virtue of seniority-system at Supreme Court? Will it be fair that a person being unjust even to a widely-acknowledged distinguished Chief Justice of a state may be given charge as head of Indian judicial system that too at a time when even the advice of present Chief Justice of India and Prime Minister are said to have been vetoed by the particular collegium-member?
It is indeed unfortunate that judicial-administration-system in the country has touched so low when personal equations and not merit matter in appointment of judges at the Apex Court. Name of collegiums-member having vetoed elevation of Justice AP Shah should be made public. At a time when Justice AP shah has declined to accept any post-retirement posting, propriety demands that the concerned collegium-member should also resign to settle personal scores without himself being at high post in Indian judiciary.

It is Justice SH Kapadia,our next CJI,who stood as a rock between Shah and his elevation to apex court.Even CJI was disinterested in bringing him to SC.Both of them are so undeserving to be in SC.The present CJI will go down in the history as the most inefficient CJI ever.Both the CJI and Kapadia need to resign for they have murdered the career of India's most distinguished judge in the recent times just to settle their personal scores.
