A constitutional question?
WHAT THE COURT SAID
On the independence of the Election Commission
“Do you think the Election Commissioner... if he's asked to take on none less than the PM... and he doesn't come around to doing it: Will it not be a complete breakdown of the system?"
On inclusion of CJI in appointment
"What we want to do is concentrate on the consultative process for the appointment of CEC and the inclusion of the Chief Justice of India in the process would ensure the independence of the commission."
