The Chief Justice of India UU Lalit-led collegium may not be able to recommend any name for filling four vacant posts for Supreme Court judges. Two members of the five-member collegium have rejected Lalit's proposal for approval of names, a report IN the Times of India (TOI) stated.
During the tenure of his predecessor NV Ramana, Lalit had opposed his recommendations for vacant posts citing the argument that Ramana was left with a tenure of less than one month. The same objection has been raised against Lalit.
CJI Lalit will not be able to hold any collegium meetings after October
