Your logic is not correct. There are other Commissions which require
"eminent" people to be appointed by law. All the eminent people
prefer those Commissions after retirement because they dont have
to work too much, unlike the CIC where they have to slog their balls
off.
So the citizens of India should be very grateful that when no other
eminent citizens an be found, the overworked baboos from the DoPT
persuade themselves to be pressganged for another 5 years before
the mast.
PS: I was the one (BTW its Sarbajit';s 3rd Law) to state that the
only qualification required to be selected as an IC is that you are
either corrupt or pliable (preferably both).
