I am somewhat surprised that the Hindu (Editorial dt. 21 July 2021) leaves the government off the hook lightly by suggesting that targeting of the woman employee of the Supreme Court who leveled allegations of sexual impropriety against the then Chief Justice might have been an attempt at voyeurism.
Is it not possible that the government was looking for incriminating evidence against Mr.Gogoi which it could use to blackmail the man? After all, several important cases were awaiting disposal at that time including Ayodhya, and it is always useful to have a judge in your pocket.Sirs, it won’t do to underestimate the Modi government’s diabolical designs.
