BOOKS PUBLISHED

Writes a popular column, ‘Candid Corner’ in the Hindustan Times; his columns have been published in a book form as ‘Candid Corner: Reflections of Abhishek Singhvi’, 2006 with a Foreword by the Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh and also released by him; fortnightly columnist, earlier in ‘Indya.com’, ‘The Pioneer’ and now in the ‘Hindustan Times’; also a monthly columnist in India’s largest Hindi daily, ‘Dainik Bhaskar’; has written several articles in leading magazines and periodicals; ‘Collection of Legal Writings’ (under publication) and ‘Emergency Powers: A Comparative Study’ (under publication).

The first is an article titled ‘Ensuring transparency’ by Abhishek Manu Singhvi in the prestigious magazine Seminar issue No 502: June 2001. There are two other articles – one in the India Today issue dated December 7, 1998 — an article titled ‘Official Secrets’ by Sumit Mitra, and the second — a book review in Frontline Vol 15 No. 7 dated April 4 -17, 1998 by Barbara Harriss — White. The book in question is Corruption in India – Agenda for Action Edited by S Guhan and Samuel Paul.

First the opening paragraph from the book review (in Frontline):

“TO all intents and purposes, India is the most robust of Third World democracies with most of the formal elements of good governance: a pluralist democracy, a market economy, a state intended to be developmental, a functioning civil society, institutions of free association, acknowledgement, at least in law, that transparency and information are the gateways to accountability. Yet, according to the Berlin-based NGO, Transparency International, India has the dubious distinction of being bracketed along with China and Indonesia, the world’s most corrupt countries. This means that just under half the entire world’s population has to contend with, and to fear, levels of corruption which distort all the items on the governance checklist.”

And here is a very similar first Para from Singhvi’s article (in Seminar):

“INDIA is a robust Third World country with most of the formal elements of good governance: a pluralist democracy, a market economy, a developmental state, a functioning civil society, institutions of free association, and acknowledgement, at least in law, that transparency and information are the gateways to accountability. Yet, according to the Berlin-based NGO, Transparency International, it enjoys the dubious distinction of being bracketed along with China and Indonesia as one of the world’s most corrupt nations. This means that just under half the entire world’s population has to contend with, and fear, levels of corruption which distort all the items on the governance checklist.”

 

Senior advocate and Rajya Sabha MP Abhishek Manu Singhvi talks about his education experience at India’s and the world’s top educational institutions and explains how tough it is to become a senior counsel, despite having a famous father.

On the subject of being the son of a famous lawyer, senior advocate and Rajya Sabha MP Abhishek Manu Singhvi said that it is not correct to say that one is born with a silver spoon and progresses through a platinum system. “It clearly gives you a push and a backup of infrastructure, with a library and a certain amount of resources. But this is a very unforgiving profession and very early on, if you do not work hard enough and if you are not able to prove yourself in a few cases, the system rejects you. The initial push is only like a rebuttable presumption in your favour. It is up to you to see that it is not rebutted.”

Talking to Rainmaker, he said that he never felt a direct attraction to law even till his days of doing an undergraduate in economics. “The omnipresent sights and sounds of law if you are from a family of lawyers makes a difference.”

“I did my schooling in St. Columba’s and did very well. I used to joke that academically everything has been downhill since then because I stood first in India. Even though during those days, law was distant in my mind, I saw my father getting dressed and going to court, I had the books of law all around me and my grandfather was a lawyer, so it does make a difference. However, there was absolutely no pressure in my case to enter the profession. In fact, there was a kind of anti-pressure. It happens by a process of elimination.”

“You think at times that you will not do what your father is doing and you examine other options. And it is the same with my two sons, I have scrupulously avoided pushing them into the profession but by a process of elimination, one is a lawyer and the other is studying law.”

Abhishek Manu Singhvi also described his study of law as having possessed a “peculiar trajectory”. “While I was doing my BA in Economics from St. Stephens, I got admission into Trinity College in Cambridge. But during the gap before the term started there, I also joined the Law Faculty of Delhi for about two months but went straight from there to Trinity, where I stayed on and completed my undregrad and my PhD and came back after six and half-odd years.

Abhishek Manu Singhvi also said that while being a good student, he was a complete introvert at school and retained some of that even in vibrant St. Stephens. It was only when he went to Cambridge, partly for survival in the strange context and climate, that he became more confident and extroverted.

Abhishek Manu Singhvi in Lokpal Bill Debate

Excellent Speech By  Supporting Lokpal Bill

As the Lokpal Bill is being debated in the Rajya Sabha, here are the highlights of what Abhishek Manu Singhvi, Congress spokesperson, said on the floor of the Upper House.He always had a viewpoint and spoke about his thought process that people are always born with a silver spoon, however if they do not fight hard to prove themselves in whatever career they choose, then you get rejected in fraction of seconds by the society you live in. The actual test of a person’s potential gradient comes to test, when they start to perform. He did cited his own example how he was very reluctant and unsure of what professional line he wished to enter, yet he took inspiration from his father. How his father’s doctorate degree and outclass work in law, gave him the courage to work in this department. The initial push is only like a rebuttable conjecture working out in your support or errand. So a person his stature, with such a brilliant thought process and enlightened Te perspective of many!

• Would have invited Jaitley to help gift us a strong Lokpal as a birthday present. But BJP is parsimonious in giving birthday presents. So don’t do it for our sake but join us in passing a Lokpal Bill for the sake of the nation. No use putting a string of conditionalities in your statements. No use saying I want to pass a strong effective bill after three months after referring it again to a committee, after further discussions. You are using conditionality as a pretext not to pass the Bill. If you don’t want to pass the Bill, say so. Have the courage of your convictions.

• On process of CBI and investigation, let’s look at it seriously, not with the intent to ridicule. CBI is 70-year-old organization. Should birth of a Lokpal mean automatic destruction of every other institution? A 10-year-old CVC, a 70-year-old CBI?

• Abhishek Manu Singhvi says You want one Lokpal, subsume CVC and CBI under Lokpal, move Citizen’s Charter under Lokpal, allow Lokpal suo moto power, have prelim inquiry by Lokpal, actual investigation by Lokpal, prosecution by Lokpal. Thank God you did not say judgement must also come from Lokpal. You are creating a behemoth of unimaginable proportions. PM’s office will look like pygmy in comparison.

• You are creating breeding ground for corruption. You are making a body outside the whole system, with inherent conflict of interest. Our conception is of checks and balances. Of equilibrium between holy trinity of CBI, CVC and Lokpal. That is how our Constitution is framed. This bill abolishes need for prior sanction for investigation against govt servants. We have said for 60 years we should have some difference between prosecution and investigation. This separation is created by the bill.

• Which body does not offer slight majority for government in selection? Now we must create a law where government will be in minority in selection. His association with the media has been noted since a long time, with the help of his expression force and communication through his amusing and humorous, self-possessed non emotional conversational talks. It wasn’t a child’s play to snare and trap the political leader cum keen author in the media’s discussions due to his sermon and speech when articulated cleared about his deep thoughts and expressions about any given topic, be it current or what happened off late! Dr Abhishek Manu Singhvi reflects his stature of being an attractive source to the dynamic and ever-popular televised urban privileged and influential class of the society.

• BJP says administrative control of CBI must be given to Lokpal. I hope nobody thinks CAG or CVC are sarkari bodies. They are independent in action in the Constitution. They have controlling authorities in different ministries. But just to earn a few brownie points, or because of state elections, you want to alter the structure so administrative authority does not lie anywhere. The minister in question replies to questions, seeks funding for these bodies.

• Are we talking of anarchy? There is a method to the madness we have here in India.

• On your side as much as our side, CBI may have been interfered with. But with media entering 24X7 our bedrooms, you think it is possible – to control CBI?

• By talking of federalism, Jaitley wants to play “naarad muni” and appeal to some of our friends on our side. You are talking of assault on federalism. But this discussion on Lokayukta clause and Article 253 was discussed with everyone. Article 252 is a national interest provision – how can it be an assault on federalism?

• Want to clarify for our friends on this side (reference to TMC). Govt has bent over backwards and has already amended the law to say clause on Lokayukta will only apply with consent to the states. 253 says Parliament shall have power to make law, to allow implementation of treaty, but also to implement a decision taken at an international conference.

• On reservation for members of Lokpal – we don’t ask for reservation, we ask for representation.

• We have the courage of our conviction. We have walked the extra mile. We are pioneers of social engineering. We are brave enough to think differently, bold enough to act differently because we believe we can change the world.

• You are giving advance certificates of unconstitutionality. Your 50-year-old ideas of India I cannot change or help.

• On Group C and D employees: They are under the Lokpal but covered by an appropriate mechanism (CVC). I cannot help it if our appropriate mechanism is not your appropriate mechanism. To simplify matters, there is not a sentence here in five lines of Pranab Mukherjee that suggests Citizen’s Charter should or must be under the same Lokpal. Or that lower bureaucracy has to be directly under the Lokpal (reference to sense of the house resolution from August 27). When you went to Jantar Mantar (for Anna’s debate), you wanted to hear the claps. So you never said a word opposing the Lokayuktas.Apart from Abhishek Manu Singhvi various contributions as a politician, an important one is his support for the Lokpal Bill. He says, “You are creating breeding ground for corruption. You are making a body outside the whole system, with inherent conflict of interest. Our conception is of checks and balances. That is how our Constitution is framed. This bill abolishes need for prior sanction for investigation against government servants.

• Just because a good idea is given by Congress General Secretary, it must be shot down – in reference to Rahul Gandhi’s proposal to make Lokpal a constitutional body. In writing, you said there was no objection to this.  Then here you say yes we want constitutional status but only if we take away Lokayukta part and if we give strong bill. Now you and I have different ideas of strong bill but what does constitutional status affect the Lokayukta part? You are trying to find excuses to oppose constitutional status. So you don’t want that, and you don’t want the Lokpal Bill to be passed. It is an excellent idea – constitutional status.

Dr Singhvi was appointed as the spokesperson during that time, asking him to resign from both the posts of the spokesperson and chairperson of the standing committee of justice! The trial didn’t last too long as the author of the CD containing the alleged content confessed of all the content being morphed and defamed against Dr Abhishek Manu Singhvi.
