The NLC, convened a press conference today at 16:00 Hrs at Plenary Hall of The Indian Law Institute demanding The  constitutional bench of the Supreme Court  be pleased to:

A.    Hear the review application at the hands of its president Adv.Mathews J.Nedumpara seeking  review/recall of the judgment dated 16^th October, 2015 of the Constitutional Bench in the NJAC case holding the  Constitution (99^th Amendment) Act,2014 and the NJAC Act,2014 to be void;

B.     recall its order dated 5^th November, 2015 limiting the hearing on the four points specified therein as so how to improve the collegium system which the five judge constitutional bench in its judgment dated 16/10/2015 was pleased to hold it to be opaque and unworthy as one which had resulted in corruption and nepotism and instead to seek opinions and suggestions from the public at large as to how the NJAC which is yet to be tested, and of which no deficiency or mischief are proved, could be further improved and strengthened so that the most suitable and eligible alone are appointed as the judges of the High Courts and Supreme Court;

C.     and further that the time for the public to submit their suggestions and representations be extended, for, the time given was too short and that too in the midst of the Diwali holidays that the public at large who wanted to make their submissions and suggestions are denied of their valuable right to do so;

D.     to hear the unsung lawyers, who are never ever heard and particularly since if the unsung lawyers were heard the judgment dated 16/10/2015, which was rendered per-in curium (in ignorance of law)  wouldn’t have been passed, nay, to discontinue the practice hither to followed namely only hearing the so called legal luminaries. Or to put in simple words, hear lay people and ordinary lawyers.  

The NLC  demand the Attorney General to stand by the will of the people, speak fearlessly for the NJAC.

“THE SLOGAN OF NLC IS WHY IMPROVE THE FAILED COLLEGIUM, IMPROVE THE NJAC”
