Wherein a competent judge is expected to have a control over his/her emotions and analyse the situation in an objective manner (offcourse without social-environmental context it will be cruel joke) Lahotiji is found wanting. He is using his incompetence that is inability to control his emotions, to blackmail the Government. He is threatening the “Basic structure” of the constitution by demanding to “wind up the court”. This is a serious transgression. Nowhere in the Constitution of India there is a provision for the Chief Justice to demand the winding up of the Court. He is insulting the revered institution of Judiciary. If he cannot have a control over his tongue he must quit. His “incapacity and misbehavior” is proved beyond doubt. Such incompetence shouldn’t be tolerated. Supreme Court is not Lahotiji’s personal fiefdom. He should quit.
Further the Reservation of position of Chairperson of National Human Rights Commission for retired Chief Justice of Supreme Court need be reconsidered ( as also the Reservations in Commissions for retired judges). Competence in matter of Human Rights is not confined to retired Judges. This “exquisite” tradition need be stopped. Let us “wind up” this “hilarity”.

PS. The issue of providing Quota in "non-aided" colleges has nothing to do with highly contentious unfortunately divisive issue of Reservation. Some people in media are playing mischief by interchanging these words and trying to confuse the people, so as to polarise the discussion. The issue of Reservation is completely different and can be debated separately. Lets be cautious...
