In his first Independence Day speech as prime minister, Mr Modi may claim a success, certainly for his style, call for reconciliation and for raising social concerns. But the bold leader, certainly in economic reform, is yet to show himself. Full read @ http://www.economist.com/blogs/banyan/2014/08/modi-prime-minister -- DEV BOREM KORUM Gabe Menezes.

[Goanet] THE CASE FOR JUDICIAL INDEPENDENCE
On the eve of the 68th Independence Day the Narendra Modi government as expected has hit the last nail on the independence of the Judiciary by now giving the politicians a say in the appointment of Judges to the Supreme Court and the 24 High Courts across the country. Our country has seen some outstanding and refined Judges who have brought great honour and esteem to the temples of Justice. With the retirement of Chief Justice of India R.M.Lodha next month that tribe may now become extinct. The politicians will now ensure that only their manageable and handy choices are chosen as Judges. In Goa the critical health of the Judiciary is a matter of grave concern. The controversial Advocate General Atmaram Nadkarni has anointed himself as the super Chief Justice of the State. It was not envisaged that an Advocate General would operate as a liaison officer bartending between the government and Judges. While the Advocate General shamelessly appears in cases for and against the government he has taken professional ethics to the gutters. Even those in the world’s oldest profession do it better. It is the Atmaram Nadkarni brigade that is high-handedly and unethically ruling the roost. Infact if you want to file a petition against the Goa Government or even the Central Government, the Advocate General Atmaram Nadkarni should be your first and only port of call. He will craftily guide you through your vows if you are ready to be milked dry. Sorrowing lies the state of Goa’s Judiciary with the national flag sadly raised half mast, but we need to relentlessly battle to restore and regain the much needed glory and independence of our Judiciary by freeing it from the clutches of the sharks led by Atmaram Nadkarni and his coterie.
