"The Modi government has acted in a manner which is detrimental to the independence of the judiciary. The Supreme Court should act to undo the damage caused by this partisan step," the party's Politburo said in a statement.
Subramaniam, a former Solicitor General, had withdrawn his name for appointment as a judge in the apex court as "a result of the shameful stand adopted by the Modi government in objecting to this appointment," the party said.
Subramaniam has accused the government of ordering CBI to "scrounge" for "dirt" against him to scuttle his elevation. He had also said he was "targeted" because of his independence and integrity.
