Khurshid said we should not be &#8220;detracted by specific issues on which we may have different compulsions&#8221; and described the dialogue as the &#8220;dialogue of democracy&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Chief Justice of India SH Kapadia articulated this when he said the judiciary, the executive and Parliament should respect each others&#8217; operational areas, said Khurshid.

The court is also monitoring the investigations into the 2G scam. There was some divergence (between the government and the judiciary) in terms of priorities and articulation and these things have to be worked out, Khurshid said.<\/p>\n<p>Dismissing the impression that the government and the judiciary were not on the best of terms, the minister said: &#8220;To tell you honestly, we are both looking in the same direction.
