transfer of judges of HC

-
recom
HC judges arent subordinate/have equal status to SC/collegium judges - hence consent of judge should be taken before his transfer

currently, collegium isn't required to consult govt - hence standard procedure for transfer should be estd in consultation with govt
regional bench of SC
-
reasons/ need due to
constitutional obligation - art 39A - justice for all by eliminating economic or other disabilities - travelling cost becomes hurdle for NE and southern states' people
-
SC at delhi as constitutional court - with regional benches, SC at delhi would get more time to hear matters of constitutional and public law

issues

Suspected foreigners not allowed to refute(prove that someone is wrong) the allegations made against them
Way forward
Need to make procedure followed by FT fair, equitable, inclusive and transparent
conc
Need for reforms-
A person’s citizenship is a basic human right. Declaring people foreigners in haste without judicially verifying their credentials can leave many human beings stateless

issues/criticism
