The Bar Association also suggested to the Government to expand the National Judicial Council by including in it a retired Chief Justice of India, Members of Parliament and the State Assemblies and a members of the Bar Council of India . Saying that only an impartial body could check corruption in the lower judiciary, the Bar Association said the High Courts had failed to take effective action against erring judges of the subordinate courts despite submission of documentary evidence by the bar associations of the States concerned against them.
