The stage is set for a battle royal regarding the promulgation of the NJAC in the Supreme Court.While the AOR association has stressed the need of independence of the Judiciary,the Supreme Court Bar association has come out in favor of the NJAC.The stand of the SCBA is that the NJAC Act balance the judiciary,executive and the civil society.It will reduce the opacity that currently prevails in the collegium system of selection.

Supreme Court on false promise of marriage

 A married woman had sexual relations with the accused, who promised to marry her. The courts initially found the accused guilty of the offense under Section 376 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), but after a closer examination of the evidence, it was found to be a fallacy. The key issue is whether the woman's consent was given under a false promise or not. There is a difference between a false promise and a breach of promise, and the court must examine each case based on its specific facts. In this case, the woman was mature and intelligent enough to understand the consequences of her actions and her conduct during the relationship suggests that she had willingly betrayed her husband and children. Every breach of promise is not a false promise of marriage and thus every breach of promise will not result in a conviction of rape.
