The Supreme Court, on Wednesday, ruled that the office of Chief Justice of India is a public authority under the purview of the transparency law, Right to Information Act (RTI). “Transparency doesn’t undermine judicial independence,” the Supreme Court said while upholding the Delhi High Court judgment which ruled that the office of the Chief Justice comes under the purview of the Right to Information Act (RTI).
