In this episode of Dil Se With Kapil Sibal , Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal discusses with a panel of leading lawyers the problem of sitting judges developing political links. Recently, Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay quit the Calcutta High Court and joined the Bharatiya Janata Party. While on the bench too, his judgments, obiter and interviews generated controversy. How should the legal community respond in such cases? And is it ever possible to insulate the judiciary from politics? Listen in to Sibal’s conversation with Meenakshi Arora, Prashant Bhushan and Dushyant Dave.

I had the opportunity of appearing before Honble Justice P.D.Desai and seeing him during His Lordships tenure as the Chief Justice of the Honble Calcutta High Court and I fully agree with Mr Dushyant Dave that Justice Desai was one of the greatest judges. Justice Desai had absolute integrity, judicial temperament,true sense of justice, impartiality,humanity,strictness, courage and administrative ability. Had there been a majority of judges with such qualities in our courts,the people would have great faith in the administration of justice in India.

@ecmpalmeira1272 3 дня назад

Thanks to all four courageous experienced judicial minds for highlighting the concerns of their profession. This debate is the need of the day as the independence and integrity of our Judiciary is questionable because of political interference. I agree with Adv. Prashant Bhushan as Judiciary is a top Constitutional body public opinion should also be given importance in reforming the same. Hope it will regain it's independence so that people have faith in the governance system.

Removal / abolition of judicial vacation and holidays. They have to work like all other branches of govt. Pls pick above mattets that affect common folk

@ashalal202 6 дней назад

What an enlightening discussion! The uninhibited, bold introspection of these legal luminaries on their sphere of professional action speaks volumes of their integrity and dedication towards one of the most important issues which directly influences the public. Madam Meenakshi hit the nail on the head and took the bull by the horns when she mentioned the importance and degradation of moral education at the school level. The first 15 years of life are indeed most impressionable years and if ethically sound values are imparted and imbibed during this phase of life then only we can hope for grand, positive and meaningful contribution by judges in particular and by citizens in general towards the noble cause of national regeneration.

- Greed ruins sacrifice required in citizens today. - Corruption and greed go hand in hand. - Honesty alone can eradicate correption. - Such discussions of learned and dignified professionals are simply waste of time if they don't conclude in concrete solution for the welfare of country. No political party talks about corruption eradication is the sole reason why India can never ever be a developed country. Think what constitution has been doing since independence? CHARACTER IS LOST is the one and only prominent one word I found most meaningful in today's discussion. I therefore appreciate the female participant.

@MrPpcops 7 дней назад

A good topic of discussion by the respected Lawyers. There should be a fiercely independent judiciary in a democracy. At the time of their appointment the learned judges may be asked to issue declaration/oath/affidavit that they would not accept/join any executive post of the Government within five years of his retirement/resignation. It would serve as a cooling period for the retiring judges. The judges code of conduct needs to be ammended accordingly.

@devidast1123 5 дней назад

In the US it is famous that a judge is an advocate who knows a politician. They come as judge through politics survive through politicking and it will be logical for them to enter politics.

Good morning sir, I am watching your show " should Judges enter the politics". Sir, in this regard I will go one step ahead and will suggest that when person holding a position of Judge, he or she should not stick to any ideology of any political parties because that will affect the hearing of pending cases before them. We have seen this in so many cases in the past.

4:53 my take is , if a person is seen as a judge , uska koi bhi dharm ya inclinations towards any political parties ho - he is still expected to be neutral - - problem is - human failures such as fear , or greed or vulnerablity to any undue pressures -- it can not be done by only a government or rules. -- these are ethical issues , of any job -- we cant sit just as ‘post’ -. the way to look at things has to be as a social and national message - as to ‘ why any job was created in the first place’ - “ chalta hai , kon panga le , saanu ki , sab kartey hain , paisa hi kaam ata hai , power is every thing “. -- these are silent killers of any democracy - -- a point of view of a concerned citizen
