A two-judge Supreme Court bench delivered a split verdict on Section 17A of the Prevention of Corruption Act, which requires government approval before investigating public servants. Justice K V Viswanathan upheld the provision by requiring an independent screening mechanism via the Lokpal. Justice B V Nagarathna struck it down, calling it unconstitutional and biased. The case has been referred to a larger bench. The judgment highlights a key debate: protecting honest officials from harassment versus preventing corruption and ensuring impartial investigations. Section 17A aims to prevent policy paralysis by protecting public servants from frivolous complaints. Justice Viswanathan proposed the Lokpal act as a neutral intermediary, while Justice Nagarathna argued this was judicial overreach and that the provision creates conflicts of interest and discriminates against lower-level officials
