New Delhi: The Centre has fast-tracked the process to set up a judicial commission to replace the collegium system for the selection of judges. The President has cleared the Constitution Amendment Bill for the creation of a judicial commission.
Sources say the Constitution Amendment Bill is likely to come up in Parliament in the ongoing session and that there is near unanimity among political parties for replacing the collegium.
Sources say the government is awaiting a response from the Congress and the AIADMK.
This development comes days after Press Council of India Chairman Justice Markandey Katju raised allegations of corruption within the judiciary.
