Arun Jaitley, former Law Minister, has shared a scathing assessment of judges. "There are two kinds of judges - those who know the law and those who know the Law Minister," the BJP leader said over the weekend at a conference organized by the party's legal cell. "We are the only country in the world where judges appoint judges," he said, adding, "Even though there is a retirement age, judges are not willing to retire. "Pre-retirement judgements are influenced by post-retirement jobs."
