This refers to the editorial, “Breaching judicial limits” (February17). Incidents like the one by a judge of the Madras High Court, CS Karnan, who has ‘stayed’ the Chief Justice of India’s proposal to transfer him to the Calcutta High Court, can land highly esteemed institutions in embarrassing situations. This in turn opens up a Pandora’s box of similar claims, thereby causing an adverse bearing on the image of Indian judicial system. I subscribe to the view that this matter should not be allowed to snowball into a major controversy as it can have major repercussions.
