“JKPSC is providing momentum to change with enviable benchmarks and had declared the result for 2021 JKPSC exam within three hours after conclusion of the interview of the last candidate,” said the Lt Governor.
The Lt Governor said the transparent selection procedure is enabling the government to recruit the best and transform the work culture. He said the State services are playing a vital role in inclusive growth and delivery of services to meet the aspirations of the people.
The Lt Governor highlighted the challenge of sustained & rapid economic growth and the efforts required to ensure that the growth is equitable.

Ensure appointment of child marriage prohibition officers: SC to Centre

[ad_1]
New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Thursday asked the Centre to ensure appointment of child marriage prohibition officers in every district and directed it to specify the policy steps it has taken for enforcement of the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act.
A bench of Chief Justice DY Chandrachud and Justices PS Narasimha and JB Pardiwala asked the Ministry of Women and Child Development to furnish data after collecting them from all states on the number of cases registered under the 2006 law and steps taken for its enforcement.
“The Union government shall engage with state government and ensure appointment of child marriage prohibition officers in every district and that they are not given multifarious duties,” the bench said.

The top court was hearing a plea filed by NGO ‘Society for Enlightenment and Voluntary Action’ which has claimed the Act was not being enforced in letter and spirit.
During the hearing, Additional Solicitor General Aishwarya Bhati, appearing for the Centre, said a bill was moved in Parliament seeking raising the marriageable age of women to 21 years. The bill is currently before a select committee, the ASG said.

‘Critical matter, serious effects for democracy’, SC judge on delay in appointment of judges

[ad_1]
Bengaluru: Supreme Court judge Justice B.V. Nagarathna, who is poised to become India’s first woman Chief Justice in 2027, said on Saturday that the issue of delay in the appointment of judges could have serious effects for democracy in general, and judiciary in particular.
Delivering the inaugural address at the fifth conference of Central government counsels from southern states in Bengaluru, Justice Nagarathna said, “The adequate manning of the judiciary at all levels by independent and fearless judges is necessary to ward off any semblance of interference from any quarter. I must say, in my most humble way, that government or executive’s inaction or delay in critical matters concerning the judiciary such as the appointment of judges could have serious effects for democracy in general, and judiciary particular.”
She added, “In fact, in my humble view, there is a Constitutional obligation upon the executive to effectively process appointments and transfer of judges recommended by the collegium of the Supreme Court within the earliest possible time, so that there are no vacancies in courts, which could hamper effective judicial functioning. If empowerment of the judiciary is to be seriously considered, I feel that vacancies must be filled and transfers must be affected at the earliest possible time.”
Her statement is crucial against the backdrop of increasing friction between the Supreme Court collegium and the Central government over the delay in the appointment and transfer of judges of the high courts.
Earlier this week, the apex court collegium headed by Chief Justice of India, D.Y. Chandrachud, had taken a serious view of the delay by the Centre in taking a decision on the names reiterated by it for appointment as judges to the high courts.
“Reiterated names ought not to be withheld or overlooked as this disturbs their seniority whereas those recommended later steal march on them. Loss of seniority of candidates recommended earlier in point of time has been noted by the collegium and is a matter of grave concern,” the SC collegium had said.

Govt is examining SC order on appointment of ECs, CEC: Kiren Rijiju

[ad_1]
New Delhi: Responding to a question asked by a Congress MP whether the Government has any plans to enact a law for the appointment of Election Commissioners (ECs) and the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) to conduct free and fair elections, Law Minister Kiren Rijiju said that the government is examining the judgement of the Supreme Court and will take appropriate action.
Congress Rajya Sabha MP Mukul Wasnik asked Union Law Minister Kiren Rijiju whether the Government has any plans to enact a law for the appointment of Election Commissioners (ECs) and the Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) that will ensure the integrity of the Election Commission of India for the conduct of free and fair elections.
In the written reply to Wasnik, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju further said, “Recently, in Writ Petition (Civil) No.104 of 2015, Anoop Baranwal vs Union of India, with Writ Petition (Civil) No.1043 of 2017, 569 of 2021 and 998 of 2022, the Supreme Court of India has inter alia held in its judgment dated March 2, 2023, that until the Parliament makes a law in consonance with Article 342(2) of the Constitution the appointment of the Chief Election Commissioner and the Election Commissioners shall be made on the recommendations made by a three-member Committee comprising the Prime Minister, Leader of the Opposition of the Lok Sabha and in case no Leader of Opposition is available, the Leader of the largest opposition party in the Lok Sabha in terms of numerical strength and the Chief Justice of India.”
Highlighting that the Election Commission of India is a permanent constitutional body established in accordance with Article 324(1) and Article 324 (2) of the Constitution of India.
The Union Minister said, “Election Commission shall consist of the Chief Election Commissioner and such number of Election Commissioners, if any, as the President may from time to time fix and that the appointment of the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners shall, subject to the provisions of any law made in that behalf by Parliament, be made by the President.”
“Originally, the Commission was headed by the lone Chief Election Commissioner. In order to ensure transparency in the working of the Commission and for the conduct of free and fair elections in the country, the government appointed two additional Commissioners in October 1989, who continued only till January 1990. Later, on 1st October 1993, two Election Commissioners were appointed and the concept of present-day multi-member Commission has been in vogue since then,” he added.
No specific law has been made by the Parliament as envisaged under Article 324 (2) of the Constitution of India for the appointment of Chief Election Commissioner and the Election Commissioners, Rijiju further elaborated further.
“According to Rule 8 of the Government of India (Transaction of Business) Rules, 1961 read with Sl. No. 22 of the Third Schedule to the said Rules, the appointment of the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners requires the approval of the Prime Minister and the President,” the law minister said.

“So far the senior members of Civil Service and/or other serving or retired officers of the rank of Secretary to the Government of India/Chief Secretary of the State Governments are appointed as Election Commissioners and the senior-most among the three Election Commissioners, as Chief Election Commissioner. The appointments to the posts of Chief Election Commissioner and the Election Commissioners are in consonance with the constitutional values that uphold the integrity and credibility of the Commission,” Rijiju said.
