Summary This tipsheet walks the reader through a story. The author writes, "The story I am going to tell is one which started as a minor incident and developed into a massive crisis. At a high point of it, the parliament had to move a motion of impeachment against the chief justice and the supreme court in response imposed a prevention order on the parliament. This protracted crisis which has caused a rot in the entire judicial system of the country is continuing with no end in sight."
