Statement by former CJI B.R. Gavai on collegium and new initiative

 Former Chief Justice of India B.R. Gavai publicly backed the collegium system as “best suited for India for the time being.” He urged the adoption of a National Litigation Policy to reduce court pendency, emphasising inputs from the Central Government, intelligence agencies, and stakeholders. This is framed as a reform-oriented call rather than a personnel change or new project launch, but it highlights ongoing discussions on systemic efficiency in the higher judiciary.
