  • Securing the Independence of the Judiciary-The Indian Experience
    SECURING THE INDEPENDENCE OF THE JUDICIARY-THE INDIAN EXPERIENCE M. P. Singh* We have provided in the Constitution for a judiciary which will be independent. It is difficult to suggest anything more to make the Supreme Court and the High Courts independent of the influence of the executive. There is an attempt made in the Constitutionto make even the lowerjudiciary independent of any outside or extraneous influence.' There can be no difference of opinion in the House that ourjudiciary must both be independent of the executive and must also be competent in itself And the question is how these two objects could be secured.' I. INTRODUCTION An independent judiciary is necessary for a free society and a constitutional democracy. It ensures the rule of law and realization of human rights and also the prosperity and stability of a society.3 The independence of the judiciary is normally assured through the constitution but it may also be assured through legislation, conventions, and other suitable norms and practices. Following the Constitution of the United States, almost all constitutions lay down at least the foundations, if not the entire edifices, of an * Professor of Law, University of Delhi, India.

    Vol. VI, Issue 1 (June 2020) http://www.mzuhssjournal.in/ Issues of Governor and Article 356 in Mizoram Lalrinngheta * Abstract In this article an attempt is made to study how the role of Governor is important in centre-state relations in India, pariticularly in the case of Mizoram. Its implications on the state especially when regime changes at the centre. Imposition of Article 356 thrice in the state of Mizoram and political background on which they were imposed were studied. Keywords : Governor, Article 356, Mizoram, Centre-State Relations. Mizoram was granted Union Territory only in 1972. From this time onwards till it attained statehood in 1987 there are six Lieutenant Governors in the U. T. After it attained statehood there are 18 Governors in the state till today (the incumbent one Kummanam Rajasekharan in 2018). These sixteen Governors of Mizoram were distinguished figures in their career and professions. Their professions vary from army personnel, politicians, bureaucrats, lawyers and agriculturist to academician.1 During the period 2014-2016 Mizoram had seven Governors. There has even been a feeling among the Mizo people that the Central Government was playing a dirty game with regard to the appointment of Governor in the state. The Mizo Zirlai Pawl (the largest student’s body in the state) also stated that the state deserved better treatment not just like where disfavoured Governors were posted. When BJP under the alliance of NDA formed government at the centre in 2014 turmoil had begun in the post of Governor of Mizoram. The first case being Vakkom B. Purushothaman. He was appointed as the 18 th Governor of Mizoram on 26 th August 2011 by President Pratibha Patil by replacing Madan Mohan Lakhera and took office on 2 nd September 2011 during Indian National Congress ruled at the centre.

J Ktaer Abbas Habib Al Qutaifi and Another vs. Union of India and others ORDER;- By way of this Special Civil Application under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the petitioners (1) Mr. Ktaer Abbas Habib Al Qutaifi and (2) Taer Al Mansoori, aged 16 and 17 years respectively (hereinafter referred to as 'the refugees' of Iraq Origin, seeks direction to release them from detention at the Joint Interrogation Centre, Bhuj, Dist. Kutch, State of Gujarat and instead of deporting them to Iraq, they may be handed over to United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees known as UNHCR on the basis of principle of 'non-refoulement'. 2. The "Humanitarian Jurisprudence "is now an International Creed in time of Peace and War. According to Jean Picket, an authority on Humanitarian Law, "It is based on two basic principles viz-necessity and humanity." The word humanitarian itself directs 'humanitarian touch' to the problem.

It has also reported hundreds of execution, some of which may be extra judicial. The report has quoted Decree No.115 dated 25th August 1994 issued by the Government of Iraq, which stipulates, cutting off one auricle of one ear of a person in event of non-performance of military service, deserting from military service or shouldering or protecting anyone who has evaded or deserted from military services.

    INDIA Supreme Court of India (Before M. M. Punchi, CJ, K. T. Thomas and D. P. Wadhwa, JJ) State of Gujarat and Another v. High Court of Gujarat Permissibility of forced labour - wage rates - deduction of expenses HEADNOTES Facts Under Article 23 of the Constitution of India, any form of forced labour is prohibited. In this case, the Supreme Court considered whether the exac- tion of hard labour from convicted prisoners serving the punishment of rig- orous imprisonment was permissible and, if so, whether they should be paid at certain rates. Decision The Supreme Court held that prisoners may be required to do hard labour under given circumstances, and should be compensated by, at least, the min- imum wage. Law Applied Constitution of India Article 23. 1. Traffic in human beings and begar and other similar forms of forced labour are prohibited and any contravention of this provision shall be an offence punishable in accordance with law. 2. Nothing in this article shall prevent the State from imposing compul- sory service for public purposes.... JUDGMENT [footnotes deleted] THOMAS, J.- A delicate issue requiring a very circumspective approach is mooted before us: whether prisoners who are required to do labour as part of their punishment, should necessarily be paid wages for such work at the rates prescribed under the minimum wages law. We have before us appeals filed by some State Governments challenging the judgments rendered by the respective High Courts which in principle upheld the contention that denial of wages at such rates would fringe on infringement of the constitutional pro- tection against exaction of forced labour...
