i have a two fold view point on this issue: 1. why are judges opposing or avoiding the present issue, if they are so immaculate? 2. tranparency differentiates democracy from dictatorship.

judiciary shouldnot be accountable, because it can act independently. indian legal system is much better than any other judicial,judges are accountable to the judiciery only.

Even our Hon'ble President, Prime Minister and Chief Justice of India have agreed that some percentage of corruption have started in the Judiciary. In such circumstaces accountability for judiciary is necessary.

Yes It is necessary to check whether the judiciary work under the ambit of law & constitution? Other wise there may be a possibility to act arbitrary. Accountable Judiciary, my strong believe, would be work more effectively and according to Law .

I joined the bar in 1971 and joined judiciary in 1981 and took V.R.S. in may 2006. I strongly feel that judiciary should be accountable.

I agree with all these. But now arise the question that how they should be? There must be a forum/commission to look after this system

Yes, there has to be accountability for judiciary, but, not by anyone certainly. It has to be a exper and experienced panel of lawyer and justice in it’s certain parameter.

Judiciary is an independent body and its independency means, full and true soverginity of our nation. It will be only be in dictatorship that judicary will be an accountable. To be 'fair and just' judicary must be independant and not accoutable....(from Adv. J.J.Bisukarma, Advocate, Bombay, High Court.)

In a democratic country like India every institution which serve as a piller to its very foundation should be limited by checks and balances otherwise a kind of anarchy will arise. Judiary however in the upper level of its heirarchy is doing very well but nobody except the suffering litigents in the lower judiciary knows the darker side of that bright visual.

Yes. Judiciary is one of the field that upholds freedom and when this field enjoys the freedom bestowed by our constitution and it can decide the fate of the society, it should not be misused. Hence accountability is required.

why not, judiciary is comprised of human beings only,and it is only normal to make some mistakes,therefore the judiciary should be accountable for all decisions.judiciary is the backbone of any democratic country.so,all the more reason.

Just by passing orders the duties of the courts are not ending. The judiciary is also to monitor the execution proceedings so as to confirm the object and the very purpose of passing the order is obtained.

the judiciary has great responsibility and the system should be fair and impartial.The judges and magistrates are accuntable to the judiciary only and the accountability should not effect the judicial descretion in delivering judgements

Definitely. The discretion vested in the Judges ought to be exercised as per law laid down by the Supreme Court as well as the Legislated laws. It is not an unbridled power. In fact the various stages of appeals/Revision and subordination of Courts is because , the Legislature knew that no one is infallible.The mistakes made by Lower court are open to question in the Higher Judiciary. My contention is that Judiciary should be accountable but not to the Legislature and Executive , but to Judiciary itself. Settled precedents should govern as greater minds have applied their intelligence to the subject in question

Accountability means responsible or expected to give an explanation. Responsible to whom? To the Law and legal system. Explantion to whom the higherups. This two are parrellel but must be compromised at some point of time. That depends on the system, situation he handles. How ever Indian legal system is much better than any other for the judicial accountability to the Law, Justice, State and PEOPLE.

Yes the Judges are answerable for justice they provide in each case. Though the judgment is their opinion, they are accountable to their Higher Athority. If required, they have to produce or submit their report,
