    Even though Law & justice is concerned we are a Banana Republic and getting in to any higher position or promotion in Government requires the ability to manipulate, connect with influential corrupt person & pay huge amount of bribe. It is a commendable for a person of our own mangalore to be a Judge of the Supreme court.

    Justice Abdul Nazeer congratulations and wish you the best being sworn-in as Supreme Court Judge. You have shown hard work and dedication to your work has
    been recognized and rewarded.

    hindu, Kudla, please note if any, NK Kateel would have taken the full credit when this news came out. Let MK Kateel confirm his role and help extended, if any, so that he will get due credit. If he had helped, which we doubt very much based on his past statements and performance, it should be appreciated.

    Im not a blind supporter of bjp. I am constrained to tell the bitter truth that a most simple, highly educated, capable, non corrupt, great patriot person Dr. Abdul Kalam sir was not appointed as President for second term intentionally by upa govt. Then politics was important why not now..? Do you attribute that Congress is a branded secular?

    Congratulations
    Its a great achievement and matter of pride for everyone in the coastal region.
    thanks to NK Kateel and Sri Modiji;s cabinet for clearing his name and recommending it to the President.
    This is true Democracy and Sign of a health secular democracy

    Ha Ha Ha
    Joke of the day, what does nk know about law or he have any capacity to recommend someone for such respective post.
    Dear Hindu Kudla, Before commenting, i suggest to think and that also the name you are referring to is really a zero value. Unfortunately South Kanara elected a candidate because of modi wave.

    Jai Hind !

    Dodanna,

    I happen to know the person and the selection process
    It is not about knowing the law- its about recommending the most able candidate to balance the Supreme court bench- Naseer Bhai fits the criteria

    Give credit where credit is due

    thanks anna for clarifying
