India has always taken pride in its independent judiciary. Judges decide cases which deal with life of the common man as also the most powerful commercial and political interests. A judge is not in a popularity race. He owes his commitment only to law, Justice and fairness.

Complaints of the nature levelled against the CJI in the ordinary course are referred to the appropriate Committee. However, when the complainant distributes copies of her complaint to other puisne Judges & the media to sensationalise her allegations, it ceases to be routine.

We should leave a matter involving the judiciary to the institution itself. It is the wisdom of the Court as to how they intend to deal with it. If those who peddle falsehood to destroy the institution are not dealt with in an exemplary manner, this trend will only accelerate.
