CJI as the Master of the Roster

The Supreme Court in latest ruling once again has upheld Chief Justice of India (CJI) as ‘Master of Roster’.
CJI is an individual judge and not the powerful collective of five senior-most judges of Supreme Court called the ‘Collegium’. CJI has exclusive authority to allocate cases to fellow judges and is spokesperson of the court.
Court agreed if allocation of cases and constitution of benches is given in multiple hands, it will lead to differences and hurdles in smooth distribution of work.
