| New Delhi, July 25: It seems that Chief Justice S.H. Kapadia is all set to check the tendency of the top court to step into the domain of other wings of the state, particularly the official.
A trend that started with the 'green judge' of India, Justice Kuldeep Singh, evolved over the years and some even saw it as encroaching upon the jurisdiction of the other arms of the state. This period also witnessed public interest litigations assume many other nomenclatures like 'personal interest litigations', 'private interest litigations', 'political interest litigation' and so on.
But the other day, Justice Kapadia made it clear that the apex court will not entertain any frivolous litigations and scrupulously deter from interfering in the policy, programmes and legislative matters of the government.
Chief Justice Kapadia is known as an upright and no-nonsense personality but the real challenge is whether the top court will succeed in resisting the temptation to intrude into others' space that it has been doing for so long. (IANS) |
