Dear Leslie
You have rightly offered your gratitude to the steps taken by Mr
Prashant Bhushan and his father, who are fighting corruption in
Judiciary.
Be sure, the Judges will think not only twice but ten times
before sentencing the duo.
I have made complaint against 3 Judges and contempt proceeding
suo motto has been moved by the Hon High court and another judge of
High Court has fined Rs 10000/-, on the feed back of his brother
colleague.
Also My hats off to them
Jai HO
