Inordinate delay in implementing verdicts

I agree to the views expressed regarding inordinate delay in implementing the verdicts delivered by the various benches of CAT/High Courts/Supreme Court either under one pretext or the other. Government must issue instructions in this behalf and the officers responsible for keeping the verdicts of the Hon'ble Courts unimplemented without any valid reasons be brought to book. It would be a lesson to all officers and would boost the others to get justice on time.

System of selecting members

'EC should set an example, EC should be courageous' the wish goes on. But who are these members of the EC.A lackluster darer helped by political support. Naturally they become only scare crows. There should be a proper system of selecting members keeping politicians away from the selection process.
