A day after Chief Justice of India K G Balakrishnan pointed at delays in granting sanction to prosecute corrupt government officials, Law Minister M Veerappa Moily said there was a need to 'revisit' constitutional provisions giving protection to civil servants.
"There is no gainsaying that the provisions of Article 311 have come in the way of bringing the corrupt civil servants to book. Article 311 would require a revisit...this needs to be done. I am pursuing the matter with the Prime Minister and the government," Moily said.
The Law Minister's remarks assume significance against the backof Justice Balakrishnan pointing at the procedural delays like granting sanction in initiating action against corrupt officials.
