(iii) All questions carry equal marks.
1. Read the passage and answer the questions that follow:- [10 Marks]
World history moves in cycles. High ethical times are succeeded by low, decadent
decades. Today we in India are at the nadir of moral values. The size of the crime wave
and armed violence, which is so huge as to baffle criminologists, is symptomatic of our
ethical degradation.
A commercial recession can be quickly transformed into a buoyant economy; but a moral
recession cannot be shaken off for years. The rot in public life began after the death of
Lal Bahadur Shastri and has been increasing at a galloping rate. It has spread so far as
to contaminate the higher judiciary which is the soul of any democracy. Judges are the
noblest servants of society: without them, its fundamental equilibriums cannot be
maintained.
The poisoning of the well-spring of justice began in 1973 when the three seniormost
judges of the Supreme Court, who were independent enough to decide against the
executive in Kesavanandas case, were superseded upon the Chief Justices office falling
vacant. The government expressly proclaimed that it wanted committed judges-
committed to the ideology of the ruling party. That began an era of a judiciary made to
measure. The government looked out for plaint judges who had no more backbone than
a chocolate clair.
Evil is more infectious than AIDS and, if unchecked, progresses with an inevitable
momentum of its own. It is but one step from forsaking intellectual integrity to
forsaking financial integrity. A judge who decides wrongly out of motives of self-
promotion is no less corrupt than a judge who decides wrongly out of motives of
financial gain.
The slide on the inclined plane has been rapid and unmistakable. In the first two
decades of our republic it was the compulsion of veracity, not the fear of the law relating
to contempt of court, which was responsible for the fact that no charges of corruption
were leveled against the judiciary. Now the compulsion of veracity dictates such
charges, in defiance of the Contempt of Courts Act.
It is preeminently a time for deep, national introspection. We must bury our self-esteem
fifty fathoms deep, and be self-critical enough to meet the truth face to face. The Bar is
more commercialized than ever before. It is against all change, specially change for the
better. Today the law is looked upon, not as a learned profession but as a lucrative one.
The due process of law has become less due than tortuous and unending.

If you lose faith in politicians, you can change them. If you lose faith in judges, you still
have to live with them. The ineluctable fact is that the conduct of some judicial officers
in different courts has been far from exemplary in terms of ethics.
Corruption in the upper reaches of the judiciary is illustrative of the incredible

debasement of our national character. There is general public acceptance of venality
everywhere as a venial idiosyncrasy. We are merely amused by the fact that the
contrast between the moral tone of ancient India and that of modern India is sufficient
to disprove the theory of evolution upwards!
The question is-which is the best way of dealing with a corrupt judge in the higher
courts without creating a crisis of public faith in the judiciary?
The greatest illusion of our people is their infantile belief in the legal solubility of all
problems. In the wise words of Lord Hailsham, the former Lord Chancellor of the UK,
We might do well to remember that in the whole realm of human relations there is no
field more vulnerable to corruption, dishonesty, chicanery, and sheer quackery and
charlatanism than contested litigation, criminal and civil, commercial, matrimonial,
testamentary, or resulting from personal injury, real, imagined, or invented. We might
also do well to consider that few of the safeguards we have achieved against these evils
have been achieved by government interference or by parliamentary legislation. They
have been brought about by the steady application of self-regulatory procedures and
disciplines
Impeachment proceedings in Parliament- the only constitutional way of removing a

judge of a High Court or the Supreme Court from his office- is a procedure not to be
resorted to lightly. It is enormously cumbersome and is likely to bring political passions
into play. A striking example of the malfunctioning of our democracy is afforded by the
fact that the first impeachment proceeding ever sought to be started in our Parliament
was that against one of our finest judges, J.C. Shah, a judge of impeccable integrity. It
was a move commenced by a disgruntled, dishonest civil servant against whom Justice
Shah had given a judgment in the Supreme Court, and who cunningly managed to
secure as many as 199 signatures of Members of Parliament for an appeal to the
Speaker of the Lok Sabha to start impeachment proceedings against the judge. In 1993,
a motion to impeach Justice V. Ramaswamy of the Supreme Court was defeated in
Parliament because the Congress party issued a whip that Congress members should
abstain from voting, ignoring the correct legal position that Parliament had to exercise a
quasi-judicial function on an impeachment motion.
It would be foolish as well as dangerous to relax the rigour of the Contempt of Courts
Act, 1971 and permit truth to be pleaded as a defence when an allegation of corruption
is made against a judge. Character assassination is the national sport of India, and
some dissatisfied litigants and lawyers will have no hesitation in making allegations
which would scandalize the court and then inviting the judge to face a public inquiry for
a length of time which would make eternity intelligible.
In the past there have been sufficient instances of the executive interfering in matters
pertaining to the judiciary for ulterior, ill-founded reasons, to dissuade an honest law
minister from establishing another precedent of intermeddling even for well-founded
reasons.
Page 2/4
Class Roll No. ____
Perhaps the best way of dealing with the problem is to have a law, or even an unwritten
convention, regarding the procedure to be followed when there are allegations of
corruption against any judge. The matter should be placed confidentially before the
Chief Justice of the High Court for inquiring into the case. If his view is that there is no
substance in the allegations, the matter should be regarded as closed. If he thinks
otherwise, the case should be referred to the Chief Justice of India and two Supreme
Court judges. If the decision of the three judges (which would be final) is adverse, the
errant judge may well regard discretion as the better part of valour and decide not to
continue on the Bench. This would be a dignified and quietly effective way of dealing
with men unworthy of holding high judicial office.
Luckily, the overwhelming majority of our judges in the eighteen High Courts and the
Supreme Court are men of integrity, while some of them combine character with
outstanding caliber.

GENERAL PRINCIPALS OF CORPORATE LAW
1. The benefits following from incorporation can hardly be exaggerated. It is

because of incorporation that the owner of the business ceases to trade in his
own person. The company carries on the business, the liabilities are the
companys liabilities and the former owner is under no liability for anything the
company does, although, as principal shareholder, he is able to take full
advantage of profits which the company makes.
In the light of the above paragraph, critically explain the Doctrine of Separate
Legal Entity of a Company with the help of land mark judgment.
2. The advantages of incorporation are allowed to be enjoyed only by those who

want to make an honest use of the Corporation. In case of dishonest and
fraudulent use of the facility of incorporation, the law Pierces the Corporate Veil
and identifies the persons who are behind the scene and are responsible for the
perpetration of fraud.
In the light of the above statement, enumerate the circumstances under which
the courts may Lift the Corporate Veil with the help of decided cases.

LAW RELATING TO SECURITIES
1. It is the old story. It has been done over and over again.These gentlemen set about
forming a company to pay them a handsome sum for taking off their hands a property
which they had contracted to buy with that end in view. They bring the company into
existence by means of the usual machinery. They appoint themselves sole guardians
and protectors of this creature of theirs, half-fledged and just struggling into life, bound
hand and foot while yet unborn by contracts tending to their private advantage, and so
fashioned by its makers that it could only act by their hands and only see through their
eyes. They issue a prospectus representing that they had agreed to purchase the
property for a sum largely in excess of the amount which they had, in fact, to pay. On
the faith of this prospectus they collect subscriptions from a confiding and credulous
public. And then comes the last act. Secretly, and therefore dishonestly, they put into
their own pockets the difference between the real and the pretended price. After a brief
career the company is ordered to be wound up. In the course of the liquidation the trick
is discovered. We have been learning the lessons of history from the South Sea Bubble
through the Great Crash of 1929 to today.
In the light of the above statement,briefly explain how the Securities Laws evolved in
U.K, U.S and India to address the concern over Securities Frauds.
2. The main object of establishing SEBI was to regulate the Capital market and
protection of investors. The Jurisdiction of SEBI was enlarged to register and regulate a
few more intermediaries and other persons associated with the securities market. The
amendment Act from time to time empowered SEBI to register and regulate the
working of the intermediaries like depositories, custodians for securities and also
certain other persons associated with the securities market like foreign institutional
investors, credit rating agencies and venture capital funds etc. SEBI was also given
blanket authority to regulate other intermediaries or persons, not named specifically in
the statute, by specifying them through a notification. This obviated the need for
amending SEBI Act every now and then to deal with a particular type of intermediary
or a person associated with the securities market that may emerge in future.
In the light of the above statement, briefly sketch out the structure of Indian Capital
Market and explain the role of SEBI In Capital Market with a view to protect the
interest of investors, promote the development of securities market and regulate the
conduct of Intermediaries in Capital Market.
3. Answer any TWO of the following:-

i. Securities Exchange Commission (SEC)
ii. Financial Services Authority (FSA)
iii. Genesis of Securities Exchange Board of India(SEBI)
iv. New Dimensions of Securities
