Editorial With Sujit Nair | "I Was And Am A Member Of RSS": Ex HC Judge | Calcutta HC | Judiciary
In this episode of 'Editorial,' Mr. Sujit Nair discussed a noteworthy statement made by Justice Chitta Ranjan Dash, who retired as a judge of the Calcutta High Court. Justice Dash, who concluded his tenure on Monday, openly acknowledged his long-standing association with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangha (RSS).
Speaking at his farewell in the presence of fellow judges and members of the bar, Justice Dash expressed his willingness to return to the RSS if they sought his assistance. ""To the distaste of some persons, I must admit here that I was and I am a member of the RSS,"" he stated.
Reflecting on his 14-year judicial career, which included a transfer from the Orissa High Court to the Calcutta High Court, Justice Dash credited the RSS for instilling in him values of courage, integrity, and patriotism. He noted, ""I owe a lot to the organisation... I am there from my childhood and throughout my youth.""
Justice Dash explained that he had distanced himself from the RSS for about 37 years due to his judicial responsibilities. However, he emphasized that he never leveraged his RSS membership to advance his career, as it goes against the organization's principles. ""I have never used my membership of the organisation for any advancement of my career because it is against its principles,"" he remarked.
He concluded by affirming his impartiality throughout his judicial career, treating everyone equally regardless of their socio-economic or political affiliations, whether they were wealthy individuals, Communists, BJP, Congress, or Trinamool Congress members.

Is it like a Judge who went to accept a candidaure immediately after demitting the office of High Court? Your comments just like spreading falsehood when you have not got a fitting reply to the abdication of the most powerful post of HC Judge and immediately accepting the candidature of a political party. India's most valued dictum "Sathemye Jayade" is throw away by this Judge and his sponsor political party.
Interesting editorial If the EX-HC judge was really upright, honest and a man of principles, he should have disclosed his membership of RSS and that he follows its ideology, at the time when he was taking his oath as a High Court Judge. His insincere behaviour has cast a dark shadow on the impartiality of the judiciary. God knows how many persons are presently judges of higher judiciary and are dispensing justice with biases

Stop thinking that the neighbour's grass is greener than yours? Do something about it join the RSS! Be an active citizen, criticize less and act positively in your surroundings!
The reason behind the announcement at the last day of office is perhaps he is expecting some new engagement if the current dispensation comes to power again.
Sujit, thank you for your simple clear exposure of where we stand , when we seek Justice from our Courts. There seem to be no background checks prior to Appointment of Judges. Where does a Citizen go to seek Justice. Frightening. PLMA, UAPA, and all draconian Laws need a review: they have no place in a Democracy. We look forward to the North Star, the CJI, to point the Way.

These are more important than the ‘tu tu main main’ of BJP VS INDIA. Thank you for initiating the subject. We all are corrupt in our daily life, only the degree varies and JUDICIARY is also part of us, rhetorical temptations are different and hence the stakes are higher.
Excellent one
Armed Forces and Civil Servants and Magistrates cannot be members of any Organizations or parties. Why is it not applicable to judiciary.
Good report
Sir,you've created awareness
👍👍👍
Every judiciary systems/sections, person must be wholly dedicate to his/her heart, education, positive mind, with vows taken & service dedicated in interest of the judiciary values, the nation, people & justice ...
Hi sir, please make an editorial on the EC not revealing numbers of voters, rather only percentages, which is dangerous as they are changing. Assuming a voter count of 90 crores, a 6% manipulation, if introduced by the EC, can translate into 540 lakh votes. Dividing this number by the 545 seats, it could mean roughly 1 lakh votes difference per constituency, which is sufficient to decide the winner.
Judges are like a fathers figure. The judges instills Sense of security, hope and confidence to the people. They're the sole custodian of the constitution. They're delegated with an extraordinary powers to protect the constitution and the task to see to it that justice, equality, security and liberty be brought in the country. Now if a judge don't know this values then he is deem unfit and unworthy. A judge shouldn't even think about being biased at all.
You are 100% correct. But the recent appointment to the HCs overlooked these ethics. What to tell about these? Is there any quota system other than SC/ST / OBC in appointment ?
It was obvious from his recent 'sanskari' observation on a minor girl's rape case. The Supreme Court found his observation 'Problematic'.
We can know that Congress party while in power gave the opportunity to get govt.jobs to all the citizens of the country with out partiality if the candidate may be RSS member also, now I wish the youth of India should know this fact about how Congress party rule the country and given the opportunities to all without discrimination.
Announcing this at the end of the career means all this judges judgements have to be relocked.
What and all will happen in India god only knows
Superb show. Hats off!!!!
Jaitleys words are a hundred and one percent right.
It is the individual, who is expected to do the job taken, remains conscientiously without bias. The selection process is very important to assess the outcome from a person.
Yes absolutely... The judiciary should go by their standard books and should pass a judgement not based on his/her thoughts but respecting the chair on which they sit.
His all judgements must be reviewed.
Quite a conundrum!
To my knowledge, there was an unwritten rule since independence that no one affiliated to the RSS could be an employee of any central, state, PSU or government organisations. This includes the judiciary. This stricture was removed in 2015. He has breached employment rules and disciplinary action needs to be taken.
Incapable people on senior most administrative position. How this fellow discharged his duties as judge? Any truth in him? What kind of judgements this judge released? Aren't these kinds of people are disgrace to Judiciary?
❤
This reminds me of the judge who said peacock conceive by tears. What a joke. Just imagine his judgements for a case of matrimonial issues...
What values, ethics and discipline are we talking about post 2014. All institutions have been compromised , absolutely brazenly and most damage to common man is the state of judiciary. Even for a peons job a background check is done, how come a judge is appointed without understanding his political leanings!
strict vetting on judges who are to be elevated to higher judiciary is a must. We are a secular country, one can have a soft spot for certain ideologies that cannot be stopped. But being a member of a religious organization while being a judge is a no-no whether you belong to any faith.
Sir, There are declarations to be provided in applications to any Govt job. Memberships of any religious, social, political organizations have to be mentioned and membership of the RSS or the Communists would disqualify the application. So, in this case the man would have lost his job at the very outset. Only now some awareness of the constitution and the morality that is entailed is being discussed. When a man admits to his loyalty to an organization superior to the constitution , his fairness in judgments is doubted. Ultimately it is the integrity, honesty and probity of the individual that matters. We as a people have failed to inculcate these values and sought compromise.
Why is it difficult for the CJI to get an affidavit from each and every judge in all corners of India that they are not affiliated with any organization, belief so that justice can be served both factually and morally. Any mis-declaration should be sentenced by nothing less than a decade in jail ! PERCEPTION OF JUSTICE IS EQUALLY IMPORTANT !!!!!!
We, yes we, have normalized all of these, so unwinding would be next to impossible. This is similar to unlearning driving once you learn it!
A centrist ideology is not harmful as long as a judge is not political or take up political cases !
One cannot serve both God and Man. He has to choose who is the best for him and as a judge he should be fair and faithful to his practice. Above all he should deliver the right judgement.
The fact that the judge revealed the truth only after retirement shows that even he knew his position was not right. He should not be the one to give himself character certificate, rather he should have revealed his background openly and allowed the people who appeared before his bench to decide. Well said Mr Nair.
Advocate dushyant dave is spot on .our judiciary has failed us. No detailed explanation needed.
Sir you just answered your question the judge is looking for a well paid job post retirement, where would he get a good well paid position, so the judge just marketed himself by saying he is part of RSS to get a job as simple as that.

Not so simple dude, at least he has the guts to tell the truth, whereas elsewhere in the Abrahamic majority countries where the majority of judges are either Christians or Muslims and their allegions are already known without any fuss then why should India be different in the world and create a storm in a glass of water. Indian Judges must deliver their judgements according to Sanatan Dharma principles in India similar to Abrahamic judiciaries despite the 75 million Christians and 200 million Muslims of India. The majority rules everywhere!
How to believe his judgement or Is it become a normality in our judicial system .
if biased judges don't' shoulsn't concerned lawyers ask them to recuse?
Only because we don't live in an ideal world, a Christian, a Muslim, a Parsi, a Buddhist, a gay, lesbian or an atheist, etc cannot insist on a judge of the same faith, caste or community. Hence an RSS minded judge should also be acceptable and you may appeal his judgement if you don't like it.

Why was Judge Loya's phone data deleted before being returned to family members???
Justice V R Krishna Iyer was a member of the the first communist government in Kerala. Subsequently he went back to practice in the SC. He was elevated to the Supreme Court later.
If a person is a believer of any cast he should not be made a Judge.
It appears that nothing is going to change in this country Judicial orders are such that, if the judiciary decides to drop a case, they draft the order in that manner, and if they decide to confirm or punish, they draft the order favouring the said decision... That's all...
sujit sir🙏
True
Yes, it is fair to be a member of RSS in India and be a part of the judiciary as it is everywhere ie. in the Christian world and the Islamic world where no question is asked about faith and it is known that the majority of the judges there are either Christians or Muslims ie. in UK, US, France, Italy Or Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Morocco, Pakistan, Afghanistan etc. Why therefore the question of faith arises in India a majority Hindu nation. Mr. Nair do us a favour and join the RSS then make your own conclusion about whether RSS is a nationalist or right-wing organisation?

Who said it is not fair to be an rss member? It’s your choice but don’t get into government jobs, moreso a judge. Besides, you don’t need to tell Mr. Sujit to join rss. Nobody in their sane mind would do so.
In the past Congress had judges who became ministers and then agsin reappointed as judges. It was par for the course then but not now.
Please talk about late justice MC Chagla too
There were deeply penetrated ideology within him, without which he would not have said such statements. All his judgements should be scrutinized.
He is really a dash....
Sir, there is only one barometer to be applied for conclusion.... Whether he had provided biased judgements favouring his ideological organisation or not and whether he has harrassed the opposition government to benificiate the political wing of his ideological organisation?
It's a shame
Statement from a judge is so painful
Verification systems before and after making him as judge also need to be questioned, before claiming infiltrators or morality of systems. Because whether people and agencies don't know about links of these officials.
Don't know when India will move in the path of democracy. Democracy in india is just a dream.
He is saying this at the time of his retirement so that he gets a fat portfolio like membership of rajyasava in his post retirement days 😂😂 What is even more painful is that his name coincides with the great patriot Deshbandhu. C. R. Das😀
Many reforms / amendments in laws and systems needs to be done asap. When appointing a judge or any public servant, his her background checks needs to be done strictly to ensure they are clean.
He kept that fact a secret because he knew it would paint him in a poor light as being likely to be biased in his judgments.
Such statements from such a person would create doubt..... Which is not peaceful
The judge need not have openly stated about his RSS affiliation at the time of retirement. If he has already disclosed his interest when he joined the judiciary, then it's fine. The only doubt is if he recused himself from those cases that could have conflict. Judges have to be beyond suspicion. This is the High Cout and not a Kangaroo court. But seeing one more gentleman recently aligning himself openly, raises concerns about the kind of people who get appointed to such high offices.
He is looking for another job after his retirement and that statement done the job.
