I will give a very good example of Yash Pal Ghai who was only admitted to the Bar four years ago. He is my junior in the profession. He, definitely, is not as good a lawyer as myself because of my years of experience in practising as a lawyer. This has been clearly set out. When we say that one must have 15 years of experience as the minimum to become a Chief Justice, it is because we know. If you look at the recruitment of the Chief Justice in this country, we have never taken a CJ of 15 years’ experience. Sometimes, it is even 20 and more years. So, I would like that to be made clear. For those Members who are contributing, that is the issue that is being raised in this Petition."}
