Judiciary and disciplinary action

This refers to the report, "Action against District Judge" (Nov 8). It is uncommon to see a judge being subjected to disciplinary action. Not many nations have a separate body for judicial accountability. But nations like the UK and the US have such bodies.

Whatever faith people have in the judiciary should not be shaken due to some black sheep. The professional and personal yardsticks for judges should inspire public confidence.
