Apropos “Judicial crisis: The Chief Justice Of India must lead the resolution” (HT, Jan 13), Barkha Dutt rightly says no matter what your political ideology is, as citizens, we must reject status quo as a response to this judicial crisis. The four judges should be appreciated and supported for airing their apprehension after the CJI failed to redress their grievances, which shows his inability to resolve internal disagreements. We talk about transparency, but what about it in the judicial system? As an activist, I think a suo motu cognisance should have been taken and a probe should have been ordered into the death of justice Loya. The failure to do so puts a big question mark on credibility of the judicial system.
