I have been a lawyer for 20 yrs and a judge for another 20. I hv known many good judges & many bad judges. But I have never known any judge in the Indian judiciary as shameless & disgraceful as this sexual pervert Ranjan Gogoi. There was hardly any vice which was not in this man.

Is Sushant Singh Rajput’s death really relevant ? 20 million Indians have lost their jobs since March, but no one talks of that. Talk of Sushant’s death betrays lack of a sense of proportion and priorities.
