Today, On 4th November, The Supreme Court has reserved its verdict on framing uniform, nationwide seniority rules for higher judicial services to address disparities in career progression among judges across India, after hearing extensive arguments on reservation, promotion policies, and the ROTA system.
The Supreme Court of India dismissed a judicial officer’s plea challenging his compulsory retirement by the Uttar Pradesh government. The court upheld the Allahabad High Court’s decision that supported a screening committee’s recommendation based on the officer’s service record, deeming him unfit for continued service.
