'Vested group' trying to influence judiciary, 600 lawyers write to Chief Justice

Over 600 lawyers, among them veteran figures such as Harish Salve and Pinky Anand, wrote to Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, expressing concerns regarding efforts by a "vested interest group" to sway the judiciary. They alleged that this group was resorting to pressure tactics to manipulate judicial decisions, particularly in matters concerning political figures and allegations of corruption.

The letter titled ‘Threat to judiciary’ states, "These actions pose a significant threat to the democratic fabric and the trust placed in judicial processes".
