    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Circumventing Institutions: Did Chidambaram Subvert the Foreign Investment Promotion Board? JAI BHATIA, ADVAIT RAO PALEPU Vol. 52, Issue No. 24, 17 Jun, 2017 Jai Bhatia ([email protected]) is a PhD student at the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London. Advait Rao Palepu ([email protected]) is an independent researcher. The raids on premises connected to former Union Finance Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram and his son Karti Chidambaram have attracted attention because of the allegations by the Central Bureau of Investigation, the Enforcement Directorate and Bharatiya Janata Party Member of Parliament Subramanian Swamy that the functioning of the soon-to-be defunct Foreign Investment Promotion Board was sought to be subverted. One major accusation against Chidambaram is that he manipulated the working of the FIPB to help the former Communications Minister Dayanidhi Maran in the Aircel–Maxis case. The EPW presents for the first time how this unusual deal was structured in a convoluted manner using preference shares.

  • Judicial Independence: the Pros and Cons
    An Open Access Journal from The Law Brigade (Publishing) Group 56 JUDICIAL INDEPENDENCE: THE PROS AND CONS Written by Vanshika Shukla Research Scholar, Law, Babasaheb Bhimrao Ambedkar University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India INTRODUCTION The concept of the independence of judiciary has always been a very furious argument for analysis, which had achieved more impulse recently. Independence of judiciary, to certify specifically, means an impartial and inactive judicial system, which can assist to take its decisions without being influenced by any external or internal firm or forces or by irrelevant considerations. The independence of the judiciary is an essential part of democracy; expect to shield the judicial process from external impact and to provide full legal protection to all individuals going to court for whatever reason. The Courts are contemplated to act as partisan of the law, who independently operate their judicial power without any practicable or individual inhibit. Such inhibits frequently comes from executive and legislative officials, political parties, the military, paramilitary and intelligence forces, criminal groups and the judicial hierarchy itself. The imminent of human blunder, specifically when human interest comes into conflict with the claims of others, requires that a judiciary should interpret the laws, and the hypothesis, which determine it, as far as potential independent of the Executive and the Legislature. The Judicial independence is a dual concept. It not only means freedom from extraneous impact but it also means an independent accession by the individual judge. Judge commitment also able to think independently for himself. He should not be fluctuating by the altercation of one side and just close his eyes to the argument of the other side.
