Supreme Court Rejects Plea Against Collegium System, Upholding Public Interest in Judicial Appointments

The Supreme Court rejected a petition to abolish the Collegium system and reinstate the National Judicial Appointments Commission (NJAC). The Registrar emphasized the system’s legality, citied previous judgments, and deemed the petition repetitive and burdensome to the court. The rejected plea criticized the Collegium system and the 2015 judgment, which struck down the NJAC mechanism.
