Justice Balakrishnan becomes CJI because he is the most senior judge and not because he is a Dalit. Also stop spreading lies that Kerala is caste-ridden society in the near past. I learned that he started his schooling in around 1950 (since his brith was in 1945)and by that time Kerala has already undergone renaissance and a caste based discrimination was no longer existed. The journalist wanted to assign a nonexistent 'Dalit card' to the new CJI appointment and in that frency he tries to put forth a nonexistent caste discrimination in Kerala.
