In a 45-minute interview to Karan Thapar for The Wire, Arun Shourie, who is also a former editor of the Indian Express and a highly regarded and prolific author, says that the recent comments made by the Law Minister, about judges and the Supreme Court collegium, and by the Vice President, about the primacy and supremacy of parliament over the constitution, do not simply reflect the difference of opinion over how judges are chosen but constitute “a concerted attack on the judiciary” which is “deliberate and well-thought through”. Mr. Shourie says this is not just an attack on judges but an attempt “to denigrate” the Supreme Court, a fundamental and critical part of our constitution. He says the aim is to lower the image and standing of the Supreme Court in the eyes of the Indian people.
