CJI Kant Proposes Performance Evaluation for Judges

The Chief Justice of India, Surya Kant, has suggested that judges in high courts and the Supreme Court should be evaluated for their performance.

This idea comes because the current system has many problems, like too many cases waiting, long delays, and lack of transparency.

The evaluation could help fix these issues, but it must be done carefully to avoid mistakes.

The current system for lower court judges, called the Annual Confidential Report (ACR), mixes different types of measurements and can sometimes be unfair.

The goal is to make the judicial system work better for everyone, especially those waiting for justice.

It's important to get this right to keep the judges independent and the system fair.
