Adopt, enjoy, return - Welcome to India

  To, The Hon’ble Court and Ld. Members of the bar,   Respectfully Stated, I am writing to highlight the recent judgment dated 25.01.24 passed by Hon'ble Bombay High Court in the adoption matter of Bal Asha Trust. The impugned orders are as attached.   Factual background: The court had allowed the prayer to adopt a minor child (born on 10.05.20) of about 3.5 years vide order dated 17.08.23.   The court had ordered, "1. That the Prospective Adoptive Parents be given the said child in Adoption be declared as parents and have all parental legal rights, Privileges and responsibilities."

Seeking replacement of collegium system with democratic election of judges in Supreme Court

  To, The Hon'ble President of India and The Hon'ble Prime Minister of India, Please fix the procedure of appointment of judges in Supreme Court as these people control the whole judicial organ and significantly impact how the lower judiciary think and work. It is humbly proposed to introduce democratic election procedure for selection of judges among eligible candidates and the voting be done at a wider scale comprising of all litigants (citizen in need of justice), advocates, other judges and other judicial staff. And for these voters to make an informed decision, all the past judgments of a judge may be put in public domain. I understand democratic selection can be unintuitive at times but there is beauty in collective thought process compared to 3-5 selected people (aka collegium system) Regards. Vivek To the citizens of India, Most of you have no idea how much power has been assumed by judges sitting in so called The Supreme Court. These people daily make critical decision...
