Judiciary ruling the country: Nayar

Vijayawada, March 13: Eminent journalist Kuldip Nayar today said judiciary was virtually ruling the country these days.

“Judiciary is governing our country due to lack of transparency in the political system,” he said at a ‘meet the press’ programme at Vijayawada Press Club.

People’s expectations from the judiciary were increasing because of the failure of the political class, he said.

“Prime Minister Manmohan Singh could have done more, but his hands are tied with the coalition ‘Dharma’, Nayar said.

On Telangana agitation, he said small states do not necessarily bring prosperity. “People in Punjab are now realising that bifurcation of the state was a mistake,” he said.
