2022-08-08 10:08:04 What exactly is the collegium system?
- The collegium system was born out of years of friction between the judiciary and the executive.
- The Three Judges cases saw the evolution of the collegium system.
- In the First Judges case, the court held that the consultation with the CJI should be “full and effective”.
- The Second Judges case introduced the collegium system in 1993. It ruled that the CJI would have to consult a collegium of his two senior-most judges in the apex court on judicial appointments. The court held that such a “collective opinion” of the collegium would have primacy over the government.
- It was the Third Judges case in 1998, which was a Presidential reference, that expanded the judicial collegium to its present composition of the CJI and four of his senior-most judges.

2021-12-11 10:15:32 What is VL-SRSAM?

VL-SRSAM has been designed and developed jointly by three facilities of the Defence Research and Development Organisation for deployment of Indian Naval warships. The missile has the capability of neutralising various aerial threats at close ranges including sea-skimming targets. The tactic of sea skimming is used by various anti-ship missiles and some fighter jets to avoid being detected by the radars onboard warships. For this, these assets fly as close as possible to sea surface and thus are difficult to detect and neutralise. ओपन / कमेंट
