MoP proposes selection of judges based on merit
Performance appraisal should be a standard for appointing Chief Justices of High Courts and Supreme Court judges, proposed a new Memorandum of Procedure (MoP) created by a Group of Ministers (GoM). The GoM also proposes that the “prime criteria” for appointing judges in the SC should be “seniority as chief justice/ judge of the high court” and “merit and integrity”.
