Amazing interview!! Far away from the interviews we see now a days. Not for once was Mr. Shourie interrupted which has become the most disturbing yet absolutely unavoidable phenomenon of now a days interview. I could actually listen to the breathing of them in between the questions and answers. Hence, Mr. Shourie could answer in such soothing manner. Very enlightening to learn from him and kudos to the interviewer for such well planned interview questions...
Don't get mislead by the smoothness. He is the most power hungry politician I have come across. As soon as BJP got full majority in 2014 elections he bought new dress to take PRAMAN VACHAN as minister. But see now who are his friends and what are his activities.
Arun Shourie is incomparable in boldness and scholarly dissertation. Supreme Court is nowadays supreme only in shamelessly surrendering to the Government. It didn’t cringe so much even during Emergency. SC , by its arrogance and stupidity in taking up Prashant Bhushan contempt case, has brought public focus to its functioning. People were criticising SC in muffled voices so far, now they are doing so openly,clearly and loudly. Currently, SC shows no dignity,self-respect,backbone,independence or legality. It can be a defining moment against SC, and NM government. My humblest regards to Arun Shourie ji.
Excellent interview, this is what journalists should take up. Yesterday itself I was wondering why journalists are not talking about the so many prevailing issues that SC is silent about.
We are very much thankful to Mr. Arun Shourie for giving his excellent and incisive views on this subject. He more or less echoed the thoughts and views of millions of other Indian country men. I do remember Mr. Arun shourie from the days he was the Chief Editor of the Indian Express English daily. He was one of the most reputed Ministers in the Vajpayee Ji Cabinet also. He is a man of very high integrity and high intellectual. He is a very towering figure compared to these dwarfs in the present PM regime. Now coming to the point, it all boils down to nothing but making a mountain out of a mole hill. It was just a simple Tweet from Mr. P.Bhushan and there is nothing serious to bring disrepute to the supreme court CJI . In fact the picture of the CJI sitting on a motor byke does not seem to have been taken anywhere inside any Court premises or so. If this does not amount to free speech then what does free speech ever mean. And how the hell can this amount to comtempt of Court. If this comment in a twitter is a case for Contempt of Court, how the hell does the supreme court completely and conveniently forgets the act of the Supreme court lady employee who had levelled false charges of sexual harassment against the Supreme court Judge himself and also the case of the supreme court Judges 4 of them coming out in revolt against the Supreme Court itself. Why were these, not made out to be a cases of comtempt of Court? What is sauce to the geese has to be sause to the Gander also. The supreme Court’s treatment against Mr. Prashanth is most bizzare and ridiculous. More and more people should come out to voice their concern and show strength of solidarity.
Excellent episode. Brilliant panel, having a stimulating and informed discussion. Mr Arun Shourie is, as ALWAYS, a beacon of light who is deservedly considered a public intellectual. Full power.
Immediately after retirement, If Justice Sadasivam could get governor post and Justice Gogoi could get a Rajya Sabha seat, the people's trust on the credibility of the Supreme court will be questionable.
+Isaac Solomon, Nothing is questionable! What about Md. Hidayatullah, who was nominated as Vice President of India, after retiring as CJI by Congress Government? This is not the first time. There are several precedents!!
Dear Arun what a fall. When good things become bad it becomes very bad. But to this extent. Let god save my country from complete doom and destruction.
History is a very tough judge. It takes suo moto cognisance of every incident & delivers its verdict in due course of time. 50 years down the line; it would be interesting to observe the judgement of history on two back to back prime ministers of India.
बहुत अच्छी बातचीत रही अरुण शौरी जी के साथ!इसके पहले,इस विषय पर, इनके दो इंटरव्यू देख चुका था,इसलिए कई बातें दुहराई जा रही थी।खैर! इनकी खिड़की के बाहर कितनी खूबसूरत शाम ढल रही थी और इंटरव्यू के अंत तक कितना हसीन चाँद निकल आया था
It is pity that the legal community in India did not utter a single word against Sampath Kumar vs Union of India 1986. P.P.Rao strongly supported the judgment. The judgment survived for a decade.. it negated the Doctrine of Basic Structure, judicial history and every facet of Law.
Sir our judiciary is honest and greatest judiciary in the world. Thatwhy, honest, athiest, unbiased, hardworking , prudent, genius, law abiding,well developed mind,respectable persons, be judges. Jai every second honest jai every second hardwork.
The likes of Arun Mishras, reveal one very pertinent questions about the quality of " merit" in the Supreme Court of the country ! How are we to judge "merit "? Who will judge "merit" ? The hue and cry raised by the judges in the Supreme Court on the question of " merit " in respect of reservations for the SCs/ STs/ OBCs is hollow, when we the citizens of this country confront the whims and fancies of judges like Mishras and Gogois and others like them. Does the whims of Arun Mishras in any way reflect their MERIT ?
Judges, police and army people- these 3 categories have immense power at their disposal. They must be controlled well but are not. At least, the first two are out of control and the third is treated as the holy cow.
“Appointment of Judges in High Courts and Supreme Court should be limited to One Year only”. And should make such laws to not allow them to make ego clashes in between the Advocates and other Constitutional functionaries. More over there should be a restriction for them in making decisions on the basis the Question of Law only. And not according their Whims and Fancies or for their cheep popularities. If it goes beyond what they are bound should be criticized and proper steps need to be taken against such arrogant Judges through People’s Court if Government does not take steps. Peoples' will are the strongest power in Democracy. I support Mr. Prashant Bhushan. I do not think that Judges have some impunity. What Mr. Prashant Bhushan has done the right thing where others do not dare. Most of the present Judgments from the Supreme courts are not on the basis of Natural Justice or on Law. It can be seen in Ayodhya Case. Demolishing of Flats in Kerala. Due to the demolition who is the most sufferers; only the common people, who spent their hard earned money for their dream Houses. What was really gained out of this demolition process? Only for cheap Popularity Hundreds of lay men were becomes the Victims of these Blunders. The Court should have punished the actual conspirators for life time and those who given approvals instead of punishing the poor lay men. Decisions must “not only be fair but it seemed to be fair” also. “Power Corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.” We afraid the lack of applying Judicial mind in matters of controversies in most of the present Decisions of the apex Court are dangerous. These realities attracts the non-confidence of people in Courts. Very shameful
What is missing in high office is probity or a sense of decorum and fair play. Everyone has become brazen and shameless. Why? The example for such conduct comes from the highest chair. So everywhere people in high positions have shut their eyes and ears to the people. Another major factor is absence of a strong impartial media. TV channels are showing a circus.
Justice must not only be done but also must be seen to be done......alas in our country judiciary has failed it's people....the last hope of a better democracy is almost over
divine?? they are not gods, they have been passed the mantle on a temporary basis. we are not subjects we are the people who have passed this mantle and hence they are accountable to us
@@arbitram That was the point. Gone are those days when rulers were God's representative on Earth and had a mandate from the heavens to rule the subjects...But still people are there in sufficient numbers today who believe in this stuff.
Caesers wife should be above suspicion.Let there be a private member's bill to stop retired judges from political appointment (RS, nomination) or governorship or chairmanship of corporations.However let them fight lok sabha election.
Mr Arun Showrie is a very learned man. All his ideas are for 'what is happening and what should be done' ....but nothing about why this is happening so? The answer to this is Prashant Bhushan charge. That is why he is targeted and trying to make him quite by few men from political parties, executives, industrialist who are pumping in money and judiciary. Judiciary is somewhere guilty so that they are scared of.
Judgments go according to the written laws. Not according to the fancy ideas of judges. If any ambiguity in judgments look into the loopholes of the laws. A judge can not bypass the arguments of the Lawers.
Very sad to see a brilliant mind say such things. He compares controversy without stark contrast in victims. Also there was a study made public that lynchings were based on false data but he still maintains his views which are just based on fallacy. I believe not manthan but a great atma manthan is what should be considered by such people. I am sorry if my statements hurt in someway but I seriously think you should reconsider your views on almost every aspect you spoke.
I go to court to vacate my tenant,judges take six years to give final judgement to vacate my tenant, this is the fate of our judiciary who will questions them,I think my india become bankruptcy in judicial,ask any person about judiciary they will zero marks
The problem is not one or two single incidents but afraid mass sliding of the system under known and unknown heavy forces pulling blanket under the feet of holy constitution
These judges of Supreme Court are themselves have already undermined the court reputation and millions of people have forced to thing that these judges are all corrupt and expect post after retirement that is why the all verdicts
Covert Presidential system in action in the banana-republic ie India ! K-roo SC-court ! All -Modi -Judges ! Each n every SC 'J" is a contributor to PM-cares !
Four judges warned the country. One of them abdicated and took a U-turn! CJI Bobde is on the same track of Dipak Misra. If, and when, a law scholar, takes up a study of the judgements delivered by the Supreme Court between 2014 and till date, and ,if, with special reference to those of Arun Mishra, the country will know how through those judgements Democracy was sabotaged! And the role of judges in the present times is really suspect & very pitiable, leave alone being sad !!
In a true democracy, who else other than the people of India? They say that during NDA I, Sir, you as a minister, helped Ambanis. How do you feel now? Had you obtained people's consent then?
Election Commission , Media , Supreme Court and Judiciary all have crumbled under this Govt. BJP has grossly misused Nationalism and Religious fanaticism to create an atmosphere of fear in masses . I always believed that an intellectual person like you joined BJP fully realising that their fundamental position against Muslims and belief in the philosophy of RSS. Modi has simply implemented that philosophy . YOU WERE PART OF THAT STREAM , NOW DO YOU REGRET BEING PART OF THAT STREAM .
Mr. Arun Shourie, this dry and inane discussion is useless! Don't you know that your question will lead to what is called "regressus ad infinitum"!!? You have to stop somewhere and give it finality!
It's nice to see Arun shourie sir in good health. You are a fine intellectual of our country.
Amazing interview!! Far away from the interviews we see now a days. Not for once was Mr. Shourie interrupted which has become the most disturbing yet absolutely unavoidable phenomenon of now a days interview. I could actually listen to the breathing of them in between the questions and answers. Hence, Mr. Shourie could answer in such soothing manner. Very enlightening to learn from him and kudos to the interviewer for such well planned interview questions...
The words & tone of Shr. Shouri is so soothing and comforting to ears. It's like you are chatting with your grandpa. 🙂
Very poor show
It is not two tweets. a person's attitude over period of time has bearing on the ultimate but it is still n0t the end of it.
Don't get mislead by the smoothness. He is the most power hungry politician I have come across. As soon as BJP got full majority in 2014 elections he bought new dress to take PRAMAN VACHAN as minister. But see now who are his friends and what are his activities.

Very excellent views expressed by Shourie sir. People like you should always come forward
Immediately after retirement, If Justice Sadasivam could get governor post and Justice Gogoi could get a Rajya Sabha seat, the people's trust on the credibility of the Supreme court will be questionable.
+Isaac Solomon, Nothing is questionable! What about Md. Hidayatullah, who was nominated as Vice President of India, after retiring as CJI by Congress Government? This is not the first time. There are several precedents!!
True. Agree 👍
Dear Arun what a fall. When good things become bad it becomes very bad. But to this extent. Let god save my country from complete doom and destruction.
The judgment of the judges will judge the judges and history will remember them for their judgments.
66⁶
Hats off Arun Shourieji.
If this is the fate of the best lawyers, how can common man can get justice in supreme court...
Don't expect that from an autocratic system.
Supream court is the play ground of bjp.
After reading the judgement on babri-Ayodhya case no one shld hv doubts that the judges are jokers
History is a very tough judge. It takes suo moto cognisance of every incident & delivers its verdict in due course of time.
50 years down the line; it would be interesting to observe the judgement of history on two back to back prime ministers of India.
There is no police for police and no judge for judges
Looks like HONESTY ISN'T THE BEST POLICY.
Our judges are spineless creatures and r saluting the rising sun which is norm hariomp
Beautifully explained !
Thank u for wonderful information
Excellent. Knowledge and forces you to think where our country is being driven.
Respect commanded not demanded, integrity of judges eroding
Sir. Arun Shourie, you forgot to mention Judge Loyo's case, and the court's ignorance in the ruling party's lies in china's intrusion.
Arun shorie is rejected person wanted to be minister. Talking all nonsense. Nobody takes him seriously. Keeon barking
Absolutely. An honest judge, murdered, and none of the culprits walk away freely.
बहुत अच्छी बातचीत रही अरुण शौरी जी के साथ!इसके पहले,इस विषय पर, इनके दो इंटरव्यू देख चुका था,इसलिए कई बातें दुहराई जा रही थी।खैर!
इनकी खिड़की के बाहर कितनी खूबसूरत शाम ढल रही थी और इंटरव्यू के अंत तक कितना हसीन चाँद निकल आया था
It is pity that the legal community in India did not utter a single word against Sampath Kumar vs Union of India 1986. P.P.Rao strongly supported the judgment. The judgment survived for a decade.. it negated the Doctrine of Basic Structure, judicial history and every facet of Law.
Good question.
Sir our judiciary is honest and greatest judiciary in the world. Thatwhy, honest, athiest, unbiased, hardworking , prudent, genius, law abiding,well developed mind,respectable persons, be judges. Jai every second honest jai every second hardwork.

Does the whims of Arun Mishras in any way reflect their MERIT ?
Who will judge the media who are not accountable to any body
Abruptly ended... is there a part 2/ another video in continuation?
Great factual analysis by d great Arun shouri sir. Salute u sir..
Judges, police and army people- these 3 categories have immense power at their disposal. They must be controlled well but are not. At least, the first two are out of control and the third is treated as the holy cow.
First High court Justice Kanan and Prashant Bhushan. Lawyers must unite with Bhushan bcoz truth must prevail.
“Appointment of Judges in High Courts and Supreme Court should be limited to One Year only”. And should make such laws to not allow them to make ego clashes in between the Advocates and other Constitutional functionaries. More over there should be a restriction for them in making decisions on the basis the Question of Law only. And not
according their Whims and Fancies or for their cheep popularities. If it goes beyond what they are bound should be criticized and proper steps need to be taken against such arrogant Judges through People’s Court if Government does

corrupts absolutely.” We afraid the lack of applying Judicial mind in matters of controversies in most of the present Decisions of the apex Court are dangerous. These realities attracts the non-confidence of people in Courts. Very shameful
If there is authority to judges, then who will judge that authority,it will start a unending circle????
What is missing in high office is probity or a sense of decorum and fair play. Everyone has become brazen and shameless. Why? The example for such conduct comes from the highest chair. So everywhere people in high positions have shut their eyes and ears to the people. Another major factor is absence of a strong impartial media. TV channels are showing a circus.
Justice must not only be done but also must be seen to be done......alas in our country judiciary has failed it's people....the last hope of a better democracy is almost over
Who are we to judge the judges or the PM or the govt...They have the divine mandate to rule...Don't they..And we are their subjects?
divine?? they are not gods, they have been passed the mantle on a temporary basis. we are not subjects we are the people who have passed this mantle and hence they are accountable to us
@@arbitram That was the point. Gone are those days when rulers were God's representative on Earth and had a mandate from the heavens to rule the subjects...But still people are there in sufficient numbers today who believe in this stuff.
Truly free fight for the freedom of others. Those fighting for their privileges and perks are probably not fit for public life.
Caesers wife should be above suspicion.Let there be a private member's bill to stop retired judges from political appointment (RS, nomination) or governorship or chairmanship of corporations.However let them fight lok sabha election.
Mr Arun Showrie is a very learned man. All his ideas are for 'what is happening and what should be done' ....but nothing about why this is happening so? The answer to this is Prashant Bhushan charge.

The video isnt complete!!!

Great manthan.. subtitles in telugu,
ARUN SHOURIE JI GREATEST PARTY OF WORLD B J P. IS & WILL
RULE SUPREME COURT.
ONLY GOD CAN SAVE INDIA.
We know the leanings of Manthan
❤️😍
Certainly not the likes of Prashant Bhushan!!!
Judge not,judges of Supreme Court,lest you be not judged-I.Venkateswarlu
The various features of a situation arise mutually or imply one another as back implies front, and as chickens imply eggs---and vice versa.
there is actually a law based on a court rulling that you can't criticize gandhi
Very sad to see a brilliant mind say such things. He compares controversy without stark contrast in victims. Also there was a study made public that lynchings were based on false data but he still maintains his views which are just based on fallacy. I believe not manthan but a great atma manthan is what should be considered by such people. I am sorry if my statements hurt in someway but I seriously think you should reconsider your views on almost every aspect you spoke.
I agree. Arun Shourie's talk is just his personal opinion. To be ignored.
All are equal and nobody is above the law is a hypocritical phrase often used in our country.
I go to court to vacate my tenant,judges take six years to give final judgement to vacate my tenant, this is the fate of our judiciary who will questions them,I think my india become bankruptcy in judicial,ask any person about judiciary they will zero marks
The problem is not one or two single incidents but afraid mass sliding of the system under known and unknown heavy forces pulling blanket under the feet of holy constitution
Sir audio is very low.
These judges of Supreme Court are themselves have already undermined the court reputation and millions of people have forced to thing that these judges are all corrupt and expect post after retirement that is why the all verdicts
What Mr.Modi want to do by neglecting this great and bright brains in BJP.
Judges are spineless guys
People trust SC not you guys...
Law is above all .
Their own.
Sad to see Arun Shourie decompose in every form of sensibility he was admired for 😕.
Covert Presidential system in action in the banana-republic ie India ! K-roo SC-court ! All -Modi -Judges ! Each n every SC 'J" is a contributor to PM-cares !

In a true democracy, who else other than the people of India?
They say that during NDA I, Sir, you as a minister, helped Ambanis. How do you feel now? Had you obtained people's consent then?
Not you for sure
There are some jewels in the country. Prashant Bhushan and Arun Shourie are one of them.
Election Commission , Media , Supreme Court and Judiciary all have crumbled under this Govt. BJP has grossly misused Nationalism and Religious fanaticism to create an atmosphere of fear in masses . I always believed that an intellectual person like you joined BJP fully realising that their fundamental position against Muslims and belief in the philosophy of RSS. Modi has simply implemented that philosophy . YOU WERE PART OF THAT STREAM , NOW DO YOU REGRET BEING PART OF THAT STREAM .
S, With due respects to shouriejee, he sowed the seeds for a poison ivy like RSS/Jan Sangh to take firm roots in india!
Mr. Arun Shourie, this dry and inane discussion is useless! Don't you know that your question will lead to what is called "regressus ad infinitum"!!? You have to stop somewhere and give it finality!
It was a fair decision in SSR's case by d S.C...Arnab nd team has done a great job.
