Ex Chief Justice UU Lalit On Rajya Sabha, Governor Roles Post Retirement

Ex Chief Justice UU Lalit To NDTV: Retired Chief Justice of India Uday Umesh Lalit today told NDTV that while he is not averse to the idea of accepting a government appointment, he would not accept a Rajya Sabha nomination or a Governor posting as he believes it's "not a demotion, but not befitting the status of Chief Justice".  "To my mind, having held the position as Chief Justice of the country, perhaps, I think the position as a nominee Member of Rajya Sabha is not the correct idea or as a Governor of a state is again not a correct idea," he said to a question on judges, like former CJI Ranjan Gogoi, accepting post-retirement government postings.
