While that remark must not be accepted, [he has apologised too] there will be very few who can match Mr Katju in his understanding of law as well as religions.

Has anyone thought of introducing a rule that there should be a female judge as part of a bench that rules on anything to do with women ; whether it is rights, reservations, etc ? (This, as an effort at keeping the judgement "balanced", in an age where being a SC judgeship happens when most candidates are approaching or crossing senior citizen status, and possibly, defining stuff in an archaic manner?

Is there anything like Continuing education for judges ?
