KEY POINTS
· The central government is preparing to give a fresh push to the establishment of an All India Judicial Service (AIJS) on the lines of the central civil services.
· The AIJS is a reform push to centralise the recruitment of judges at the level of additional district judges and district judges for all states.
· Articles 233 and 234 of the Constitution of India deal with the appointment of district judges, and place it in the domain of the states.
· The idea was to ensure an efficient subordinate judiciary, to address structural issues such as varying pay and remuneration across states, to fill vacancies faster, and to ensure standard training across states.
· A centralised recruitment process is seen as an affront to federalism and an encroachment on the powers of states granted by the Constitution.
· This is the main contention of several states, which have also argued that central recruitment would not be able to address the unique concerns that individual states may have.
· The government has targeted the reform of lower judiciary in its effort to improve India’s Ease of Doing Business ranking, as efficient dispute resolution is one of the key indices in determining the rank.
