An excellent analysis. If judiciary or for
that matter any other quasi-judicial or regulatory organisations(like Reserve
bank of India, Election Commission or the comptroller and Auditor General) have
to feel autonomy and function without fear within the respective legal
mandates, professionalism, financial independence and insulation from political
interference need to be ensured at all levels in the organisations. Top level
appointments play a significant role in making this possible. Recently, to a
question from an interviewer to elicit his views on a statement concerning the
organisation he was heading by the Finance Minister, head of a statutory body
responded thus: “How can I have a different view? He is my FM”
