PM Narendra Modi speaks about current judicial crisis
In his first comments on the judicial crisis, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday said the government and political parties must stay out of it while expressing confidence that the judiciary will sit together to find a solution to its problems.
He also said the Indian judiciary has a bright history and is full of very capable people.
“Our country’s judiciary has a very bright past, they are very capable people. They will sit together and find a solution to their problems. I have faith in our justice system, they will definitely figure out a solution,” he said during a lengthy interview to a news channel.
Asked about the crisis in the Supreme Court after its four seniormost judges came out to openly criticise allocation of sensitive cases by the chief justice, creating an unprecedented situation in the higher judiciary, Modi said, “I think I should stay away from this debate. The government must also stay away. The political parties must also keep out of it.”
