The Bombay High Court ruled that judicial appointments cannot be rushed and must prioritize merit and temperament over quick vacancy filling. The Court recalled its earlier order seeking a time-bound recruitment blueprint, emphasising quality in the subordinate judiciary.
CJI B.R. Gavai said interacting with judicial candidates is really helpful, noting that even a 10 to 15 minute talk can give valuable insights. He stressed the collegium’s practice improves transparency and ensures better judicial appointments.
