Retd CJI's statement highly deplorable

The assertion given by the recently retired Chief Justice of India Justice UU Lalit is a highly disappointing one and has once again exposed the adhesion between the judiciary and the government. Ever since holding the top judicial post in the nation, one has to always remain impartial and should assure the dignity and admiration of the judiciary above all. But by himself exhibiting his craving for the chairmanship of NHRC, Lokpal or any other commission, has again raised the issue of independent working of the judiciary. Earlier also the retired Chief Justice of India Tarun Gogoi had accepted the Rajya Sabha membership by shattering the convention of not taking up any commitment by the former judiciary head. This must be ended at any cost to further save the judiciary from the clutches of government.

Curran right pick for T20 WC honour

England's Sam Curran is the new favorite of the latest T20 World-Cup 2022. He rightly deserved the man of the tournament. He bagged 13 wickets in this tournament at just 6.52 runs per over economy rate. He also got player of the match in the final against Pakistan for his impressive figures of 3 for 12 runs in 4 overs. Ben Stokes, Butler, Sam Curran (of England), Virat Kohli, KL Rahul, Surya Kumar, Pandya (of India). Rizwan of Pakistan and many others from every participating team, made their mark as twinkling stars of T20 cricket. It was once again proved that T20 world Cup is not won by the hosts - this time by Australians!
