New Delhi: The implementation of the Supreme Court collegium’s recommendations for the appointment of chief justices of seven high courts has been delayed due to “sensitive material” with the Centre, Attorney General R. Venkatramani informed the Supreme Court on September 13, The Times of India reported. The collegium, which holds the final authority on appointments to constitutional courts, had made the recommendations nearly two months ago.
The Attorney General, addressing a bench headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) D.Y. Chandrachud, explained that the Centre had provided inputs of a sensitive nature, which were preventing the government from filing an affidavit on the matter. Venkatramani added that revealing these issues publicly could potentially harm both the institution and the individuals involved. He suggested submitting the inputs and his recommendations in a sealed cover for the court’s perusal, the TOI report added.
