The Central Information Commission (CIC) has asked the Supreme Court Information Officer and the Union Law Ministry to share details of the action taken on a complaint regarding former Chief Justice of India (CJI) Altmas Kabir in connection with the alleged leak of a judgment in 2013. Issuing the order, Information Commissioner M. Sridhar Acharyulu noted that a comprehensive mechanism was needed to ensure both answerability and access to information about the administration of justice, stating: "It is not known who will discipline the judges or former judges, CJI or former CJI. Ordering for compliance within 60 days, the Information Commissioner observed that there was no system for redress of grievances in any courts of India, and no mechanism to receive complaints against the judiciary. It may be recalled that the Supreme Court judgment dated July 18, 2013, in the matter of Christian Medical College, Vellore, vs the Union of India, was allegedly uploaded on a private website hours before the pronouncement. On July 24 the same year, eminent RTI activist Subhash Agrawal sought from the Law Ministry details of complaints filed by Justice (Retired) V.R. Krishna Iyer and Dr. M. Furquan. He also asked about the action taken on the complaints. However, he did not get any concrete information. But he persisted and the CIC's latest order is the result of his perseverance.
