Assam Public Works (APW) president Aabhijeet Sharma filed the case over “misleading and defamatory statements” written against him in Gogoi’s autobiography “Justice for a Judge”.
What triggered the brouhaha was a tweet by Moitra on Thursday to attack the BJP-led union government over the compilation of words deemed unfit for use in Parliament.
Justice Gogoi states that after the resignation of Justice Tahilramani, a complaint was received by the CJI office against her alleging the illegal acquisition of property in Chennai.
Ex-CJI Ranjan Gogoi has chronicled the events that had unfolded when Justice Markandey Katju had appeared in the case to argue that the judgement of the apex court was flawed.
