    "content": "much powers. It is because Parliament is a reflection of the entire country. Everybody knows that Parliament has two sides, the Minority and the Majority. Even then, as we sat in the PSC, we wrote letters to the leadership of both Houses - the Majority and Minority sides - and asked them to each nominate two members to the Selection Panel. The only unfortunate thing is that, at that time, because of the handshake policy that existed, the Majority and Minority were one side. Therefore, it ended that one side of the political divide, ended up nominating all the members of the Selection Panel. That gave birth to the infamous - what we now refer to as - the “opaque four.” It is a history that we would not wish to go back to."
