Read what law intern replied to retd Justice Ganguly's claims of innocence

xxv. However apart from expressing my deep distress about the manner i which the entire thing happened in Supreme Court, the subsequent events clearly seem to suggest that there is a concerted move to tarnish my image as I had the unfortunate duty of rendering certain judgments against powerful interests. I may point out, that , despite odds, I judged the issues without fear or favour and if it triggers a collateral attack on me then it poses a threat to the independence of the judiciary.

xxvi. I came to know from newspapers in Kolkata that learned ms. Indira Jai Singh, Additional Solicitor General distributed copies of affidavit filed by the intern before the Supreme Court committee. I would like to know whether it has your Lordship's approval or approval of any of the members of the committee before the same was done by the Learned ASG. I assume that such a permission was not given.

xxvii. The report of the committee sent to me is dated 27-11-2013 and Your Lordship's communique is dated 5-12-2013 and the Full Bench met o 5-12-2013. However the resolution of the Full Court has not been supplied to me.

xxviii. With some efforts, I could collect from one of the journalists a copy of the affidavit distributed by Learned ASG. The affidavit was allegedly sworn before a Notary Public in Banglore on 29.11.2013. Ms. Jaising held a press conference in Kolkata possibly on 15.12.2013 and said that affidavit was filed by the intern before the Supreme Court which gave its report on 27.11.2013. How is it possible? I find such a situation completely unacceptable. If the committee gave a report on 27.11.2013 how could the Additional Solicitor General flaunt in public the intern's affidabit of a subsequent date (Sworn on 29-11-13 in Bangalore) as having being filed before the Committee? A photocopy of the affidavit which I got from the journalist in enclosed.
