VP takes on SC over appointment of judges
Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Friday said there was “no whisper” in Parliament after the Supreme Court struck down the National Judicial Appointments Commission Act and described it as “too serious an issue”.
He also said a law passed by Parliament, which reflects the will of the people, was “undone” by the Supreme Court and “the world does not know of any such instance”.
Citing provisions of the Constitution, he also said when a substantive question of law is involved, the issue can be looked into by the courts.
