NDA is following Indira Gandhi's policy of inconveniencing the judges who dare to pronounce judgments against the powers that be. The latest victim of this obscurantist policy is Justice Jayant M.Patel.
Justice Patel who in the normal course would have become Acting Chief Justice of Karnataka High Court in October was transferred to Allahabad High Court. He put in his papers.
This is an unsavoury incident that projects the government in bad light. The Supreme Court collegium seems to have fallen in line. A spineless judiciary guarantees unjust government.

The collegium has said it was an unanimous decision. If Mr. Patel has accepted that then he would have been a Chief Justice of High Court of Gujarat his native state.
