The Collegium System was introduced in response to executive interference in judicial appointments. However, this system has failed to protect judicial appointments from executive interference. It is due to the reasons like Post-retirement appointments of judges.
At present, the collegium comprises of CJI (Chief Justice of India) and 4 senior-most judges of the Supreme Court. Despite various criticisms and attempts to reform the appointments and transfers process, the collegium system still persists.
The system of appointments should be improved expeditiously as High Courts across the country are short of over 400 judges. A future rise in the pendency of cases can be tackled only when the judiciary and executive are willing to negotiate with a citizen-centric spirit.
