Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar on Friday questioned the participation of the Chief Justice of India in the selection of the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Director or any executive appointment. Dhankar was speaking at the National Judicial Academy in Bhopal.
“How can in a country like ours or in any democracy, by statutory prescription, Chief Justice of India participates in the selection of the CBI Director! Can there be any legal rationale for it? I can appreciate that the statutory prescription took shape because the Executive of the day has yielded to a judicial verdict. But time has come to revisit,” Dhankhar posted a video clip of his speech on X.
