Should supreme court judge have a political career after retirement?

Should the Supreme court judge have a political career after retirement?

Well, many of you might have not even thought about this topic before but this sounded soo interesting that couldn't hold myself behind by writing on this. So let me 1^st give a small briefing on how SCJ is appointed & their work, a past case which took place regarding this & prose and cons on this topic so that you can decide whether it is beneficial for the nation or can turn harmful.

Article 124 says there shall be a supreme court and there will be a post of the chief justice who will give...

•  The supreme court all administrative work, 
• How many judges can be in a court?
• Which supreme court will get which case? 
• How the workload is distributed, indeed a  very powerful person in the judiciary.

Like prime minister and the president they don’t have a 5-year post but CJI, he can work till the age of 65 irrelevant of the fact that from which date he entered In the office, which means if a CJI is of 55 yrs then his working time is 10yrs.

Appointment: conventionally the outgoing CJ recommends the name of the senior-most judge (i.e by date of appointment to the sc) for appointment by the president of India as his successor oath- president of India

Oath of the President of India in the presence of CJI

Ranjan Gogoi 46^th CJI gave the verdict on the sensitive Ayodhya land dispute on Nov 9^th last year. Gogoi sir is now retired CJI from last month, and also heated the benches that ruled on matters like..

•  the entry of women in Sabarimala temple.
•  Rafale fighter jet deal.
•  his significant judgements also include Assam's national. register of citizens (NRC)(that time he was the supreme court judge not CJI when this happened).
•  setting up of special courts to exclusively try MPs and MLA.
•   Rajiv Gandhi assassination case for the remission of life sentence of the convicts.

CJI Ranjan Gogoi warned that” people who objected” to the NRC process “ are playing with fire” as it has been a longstanding demand of the people.

Now under article 80 of, the constitution president can appoint 12 MPs having "special knowledge or practice experience of literature, science, art and social service” to the Rajya sabha. Currently, Former chief justice Ranjan Gogoi nominated to Rajya sabha by the president.

And the 21^st CJI, Ranganath Mishra, served as an MP in the upper house from 1998-2004. However, Justice Mishra was a congress mp, not a member of eminence appointed by the president and he was appointed to the supreme court in 1893 and become CJI in 1990. He joined the congress about seven years after his retirement in 1991.

#Case: CJI Deepak Mishra was accused of bench fixing i.e whenever a politically controversial case comes under them, they selectively pass them to such judges repeatedly who shall give favourable judgement. This has happened multiple times and not once & judges stated that justice Loya’s case was tipping point i.e over the top of limits crossed and they were compelled to call a press conference. In 2010, Amit shah went jail for fake encounter case after which he got bail, 1^st judge was transferred n 2^nd was Loya Ji. After lots of hearings, finally, he put up a date on Dec 2014 for which Amit shah had to come, but coincidentally justice Loya died on 30^th Nov 2014. The report stated heart attack but he didn’t have any history of heart attack and 3^rd judge who came to continue the proceeding discharged/ cleared charges against Amit shah within 1 month.

Prose: Upper house, upper thoughts, and he also know the exact condition what happens when a bill or any case goes to the supreme court so at the time of discussion or debate he can tell or put his thoughts, claim the faults and point of correction ...

 This is essential for the parliament to behave intellectually like Ranjan Gogoi and others from different field join parliament rather criminals and corrupt politicians...  

 When you attach a stigma to politics that people with the clean image shouldn't be attached to a political leaning you are not ready for political reform. We need more credible and abled people like Judges, military, doctors, professors, lawyers, economists in politics to take this country forward They should go for a political campaign and not someone who's father was a politician.

The corrupt will stay corrupt no matter which field they belong too.  ... But my question is herewith. Why there isn't a person with great calibre in science, literature, and welfare? To think and pass their thoughts, when the bill will impacts what will happen in that field.

Cons: Somewhere the bigger issue is that govt. can try to pitch pillar of the judiciary, we have 4 pillars of democracy: legislature, executive, judiciary, free media,  media has gone silent since it has nothing left & govt. is trying its level best to get its influence on the judiciary

“Pre-retirement judgments are influenced by a desire for a post-retirement job, This clamour for post-retirement jobs is adversely affecting the impartiality of the judiciary of the country and time has come that it should come to an end…”     If a CJI can become a member of parliament, it means his judgments can never be impartial, as he will look for his political career and won't go against the interest of political parties and giving decision in favour of strong ruling govt as well... 

 I opposed the idea of joining any political party after becoming an important figure in Indian. There are other lots of powerful and prestigious posts too which may be offered to them...

Same time there is impartial and unbiased kind of image of CJI. If joins RS then definitely opposition will raise the question

This will promote other judges to give decisions in favour of the ruling party. This is very dangerous for our democracy. Injustice can happen with anyone

Rest is all upon your thoughts how and what you believe. But directly or indirectly it's our thoughts which matters the most in upgrading our country.
