Today is 19th April,2012. Time is 7.00 AM. In next four hours, there is possibility that Supreme Court will take giant step and may become the finally, THE STRONGEST SUPREME COURT IN WORLD.
(AND YES. AT 10.30 AM Judgement is pronounced. And India's Supreme Court has become the MOST POWERFUL SUPREME COURT IN THE WORLD)
Recap:
All Lawyers and judges in India are tense and anxious. They are praying. The Judgement may come this way or that way. I will be there at 10.30 to see the judgement.
And if the judgement goes against us and in favour of Government, then?
This has become the Great Thursday of Indian Judiciary.!
Prior to 1993
Government and Judiciary had equal say in Appointment of Judges in High Court and Supreme Court.
Government used to say to Judiciary, "You suggest FOUR good candidates. We will suggest you FOUR bad candidates. Together, by consensus, we will appoint 50% good and 50% bad judges!
After, 1993, Government lost its 50% share in say of appointment of HC and SC.
Now a collegium of five senior most Judges of Supreme Court have the Final Say in selection HC & SC Judges.
This is unique in the world.
Today, another issue is decided. No Supreme Court in the world has power to order government to give more funds to Judiciary and order it to set up more court.
Today, Supreme Court of India said, YES. We have the power and guts to order you to provide more more funds to judiciary and we can also ORDER you to set up more Courts. . Now this is the ORDER. Obey our order in THREE MONTHS.
SO? Have you any doubts that India's Supreme Court has become the Strongest Supreme Court among all the Supreme Courts in the world?

Name of Case Brij Mohan Lal Versus Union of India, Judgement date 19/04/2012
(AND YES. AT 10.30 AM Judgement is pronounced. And India's Supreme Court has become the MOST POWERFUL SUPREME COURT IN THE WORLD)
Recap:
All Lawyers and judges in India are tense and anxious. They are praying. The Judgement may come this way or that way. I will be there at 10.30 to see the judgement.
What is the issue?
All Supreme Courts in all countries are envious of powers of Indian Supreme Court.
Here Supreme Court itself selects who will be next judge of High Court or Supreme Court. In all other countries, it is the Government which selects persons to be appointed as next judge of High Court or Supreme Court.
Today, there could be next milestone!
No Supreme Court in the world has power to ask Government how much fund should be allocated to Judiciary and for what purpose.
Courts have little say.
But what Courts will do if cases kept piling up across the country and the Government says that we do not have funds to set up new courts! (Though it may have lots of fund for foreign trips of Ministers.)
The Argument is that Court Can direct Government to set up and run more courts under Art.21.
Let us see what happens. If the Supreme Court accepts our arguments, it will be BIG DAY for People of India and Courts of India.
And if the judgement goes against us and in favour of Government, then?
Then, it will be Thursday for you, for me and for people of India.
Let us keep our fingers crossed and wait for judgement which may be pronounced today.
