Lawyers question why FIR not filed after cash found at judge's residence

Leading lawyers have called for judicial reform and greater transparency in the system, questioning why an FIR was not filed after cash was discovered at a judge's residence. Chief Justice Surya Kant defended the judiciary's internal complaint redressal mechanism, arguing that most complaints stem from disgruntled litigants after adverse court decisions.

Lawyers also criticized the lack of transparency in judicial appointments and transfers, raising broader concerns about accountability within the judiciary.
