LAW NEWS:
NEW DELHI: Karnataka High Court Chief Justice P D Dinakaran, whose elevation to the Supreme Court was halted, has been asked by the apex court Collegium to go on leave.
Highly placed sources said the decision was taken against Dinakaran, who has not been performing any judicial work since December last, as several representations were received that the judicial work of the high court has been hit.
Sources said the collegium has also cleared the name of the acting chief justice of the Delhi High Court Justice Madan B Lokur to be appointed as the Chief Justice of the Karnataka High Court.
LAWMAN'S VIEWS:
Supreme Court must intervene into the affairs and functioning of each and every Government Department and Organisations and Fix Accountability for Delay in the discharge of official responsibilities and duties of Public Servants.

SC could ask Justice Dinakaran to go on leave, but he did not and SC Could not do anything.
As regards the suggestion that SC must intervene into the affairs and functioning of each and every Govt Dept., etc., and fix accountability / responsibility - the suggestion cuts at the very root of separation of powers enshrined in the Constitution. This should not be permitted and encouraged.
Every one things that SC is infallible but it is not. In fact Justice Krishna Iyer used to say that "SC is final not because it is infallible, but it is infallible because it is Final."
My humble view is SC is not the penacia for everything. It has its own follies.
