Chief Justice UU Lalit recommends justice DY Chandrachud as his successor
Union Law and Justice Minister Kiren Rijiju sent a letter to the Chief Justice of India for sending his recommendations for the appointment of his successor.

Chief Justice of India UU Lalit has recommended Justice DY Chandrachud as his successor for the apex court of the country. He would be the 50th Chief Justice of India. The Union Law ministry had requested him to name his successor as he would be retiring on November 8.
On October 7, the Ministry of Law and Justice informed on Twitter that as per the MoP on the appointment of the Chief Justice of India and Supreme Court Judges, the Minister of Law and Justice sent a letter to the Chief Justice of India for sending his recommendations for appointment of his successor.
The lawyers started criticizing the law minister after posting this information on Twitter. One Tapan Kumar wrote that it was not fair that the Ministry of Law and Justice has twitted about the letter sent to the CJI for sending recommendations for his successor. As Twitter has not been controlled by the Indian Government, the highly confidential and classified letters must not be published on social media.
He further that wrote no country in the world was in the practice of twitting important transmissions by its Government to the head of the constitutionally independent institutions. If so then govt must tweet all the confidential correspondences with all the independent institutions.
Pramod Tyagi wrote that this was an internal matter of the Government of India and it should not be circulated on Twitter. He was surprised at the indiscretion on the part of the Ministry.

Another user wrote that justice D Y Chandrachud should not be chosen for CJI. His selection would have a catastrophic effect on Indian society. He had been giving judgment which spoils Indian age-old Sanatan culture. He has a prejudiced mindset against men, and this reflects in his judgements.
DY Chandrachud is the son of India’s longest-serving Chief Justice Y V Chandrachud. He served as Chief Justice of Allahabad High Court and as a judge of Bombay High Court.
