Re: [IAC++] Mr Justice Altamas Kabir Hon'ble Chief Justice of India may like to ask Mr Justice M Y Eqbal few pertinent questions on "Discretionary Quota"...

please read contempt of courts (amendment) Act 2006 2(b) the court may permit, in any proceeding for contempt of court, justification by truth as a valid defence if it is satisfied that it is in public interest and the request for invoking the said defence is bona fide.''.  I hope truth is the valid defence viadya --- On Sun, 16/12/12, Sarbajit Roy <sroy.mb@gmail.com> wrote: From: Sarbajit Roy <sroy.mb@gmail.com> Subject: Re: [IAC++] Mr Justice Altamas Kabir Hon'ble Chief Justice of India may like to ask Mr Justice M Y Eqbal few pertinent questions on "Discretionary Quota"... To: iac@lists.riseup.net Date: Sunday, 16 December, 2012, 12:11 PM 1) The SC will do nothing on Babubhai's email. It does not qualify to be a PIL. 2) If by some mistake (or on fit complaint) the SC decides to initiate Contempt (Criminal) proceedings against Mr. Babubhai, he will then get the chance to raise these matters in his defence, whereupon the SC will again rule that "truth" is no defence in contempt matters, 3) What our Ombudsman Mr. Babubhai is doing is keeping it in the public domain that the Supreme Court and High Court judges are a "mafia" answerable to themselves and are controlled by a so-called collegium which decides its own constition and membership and is completely unanswerable to the citizens. The REAL question is who controls this "collegium" ? The answer will shock you. Sarbajit On 12/16/12, rb purohit <rbpurohit4productivity@gmail.com> wrote: > It is interesting. > 1.
