Walk The Talk With Eminent Jurist Fali Nariman

With a new book 'God Save The Honorable Supreme Court' in the pipeline, eminent jurist and senior Supreme Court advocate Fali Nariman, in conversation with Shekhar Gupta on the show Walk the Talk, shares his opinion on a range of issues concerning the judiciary in the recent times. The veteran lawyer shared his concern over the press conference called in January by 4 senior Supreme Court judges to question the functioning of the institution. Mr Nariman believes that the press conference should have been avoided and that he has never come across anything so demeaning during his entire career. On the conflict between the judges and Chief Justice Dipak Misra, the jurist says that he is more concerned with the institution and not the situation of the four judges. While the Chief Justice is the master of the roster, the team has to act as one and both the sides could have handled the situation better, Mr Nariman states.
Sharing his opinion on the judges appointment issue, Mr Nariman says that Justice Gogoi, being the senior-most, should be appointed as the next Chief Justice and that anything else will be unconstitutional. On the controversial issue of Justice KM Joseph's appointment, the senior advocate says that it is foolish of the government to look into appointment of judges and it is also not for common folk to decide Justice Joseph's appointment.

Super interview , legend advocate

[@advaithvedanth4337]

A very good grandpa..

[@kamranshah3168]

Uncle is frustrated to the core.... Given his age and this governance I would be too...

[@muralikrishnaneerukonda3738]

How foolish it is to wait for an injustice to happen just for the sake of not putting repute of institution when the entire system is internally destroying.

[@ashraf6202]

Murali Krishna Neerukonda And if the next person is worse than him, then wait for another term and nothing changes.

[@memyself2364]

He is more worried about image of Supreme Court than Democracy in India.

[@user-zl1nj8ye5g]

Me Myself image of supreme court strengthens democracy. why open mouth when you know shut will come out.

[@memyself2364]

संदिप मांडे That is the typical Indian mentality of hiding the problems. problems don't solve by themselves without discussion.

[@user-zl1nj8ye5g]

Me Myself problem solving has to be within certain limits. What is use of going to public which understand little of law when you could have deliberated over the matter in court itself. judges will come and go. but institutions remain. There is no use going to someone who can't solve problem. Public can't solve problem of judiciary. foolish judges, surrendered their better judgement to frustration. who cares about these judges

[@ivishnukn]

The Supreme Court is the upholder of Democracy and Constitution of India.

[@rafeeq2350]

I respect his word as he is very experienced person of law but I disagree with him that judges should wait till CJI retirement , he is old school of thought and now this generation is look like this

[@AshishKumar-gq9th]

Why don't you do the WALK THE TALK with senior advocate DUSHYANT DAVE. He will give every answer to his ridiculous argument of demeaning the supreme court. Afterall the SC is for justice not for holding moral high ground . JUDGES are not sacrosanct .

[@ultimexg1419]

If that was so then prashant bhushan shouldnt have faced any such thing, he is now

[@AbhishekSingh-ni3uq]

That's Dushyant Dave's point of view and this is what Fali Nariman's is, both are learned souls, you can't term either of them right or wrong w.r.t other.

[@MegaDayanand]

[@shettyquityhere5823]

dayanand b.n. gowda what nonsense. Read more

[@KBala-fr4jh]

Just because someone got into the office and the robe, you cannot challenge wrongdoing by that person..what nonsense you are talking. A judge cannot be raping a woman and then go unpunished because he is judge..period...he must be coming from a Congressi chamcha Govt. Utter nonsense of Gupta sucking up to Fali grandpa..I was going to find out who this guy is, just two minutes of his interview claiming that things should remain within the four walls of his criminal cartel is enough to much about this man...All I have to say about him..is Thooo
