The Allahabad High Court, the country's biggest high court, has acquired a unique distinction of having almost 50 percent posts of judges vacant, thanks to a tussle between SC collegium and the government. With both the government and the SC turning adamant, the High Court doesn't know when its woes are going to end. It is currently functioning with just 84 judges against a sanctioned strength of 160 judges - 76 permanent and 84 additional judges. Recently, the Supreme Court collegium headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) J S Khehar has reportedly reiterated all the 19 names for appointment as judges of the Allahabad High Court that the Centre had earlier rejected - not once but twice. This may or may not trigger a new contest between the SC collegium and the government. The 19 names forwarded by the SC collegium were part of the 30 recommended by the collegium of the Allahabad High Court last year. Of these, the government, after receiving clearance of the Supreme Court, had processed the names of 11 and sent back 19 to the collegium for reconsideration. But the SC collegium, headed by then Chief Justice of India (CJI) Tirath Singh Thakur, reiterated the names. Yet again, in an unusual move, the government reportedly rejected all the names and sent them back to the SC collegium.
