Former Supreme Court judge Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul has questioned former CJI D Y Chandrachud’s approach to judicial appointments, alleging that he was “too deferential to the government.”
In his forthcoming memoir, Kaul recounts a Collegium meeting where he alleges the Chief Justice considered seeking the government’s view on a candidate before formal deliberations.
