Andhra CM writes to Chief Justice of India against top SC judge

India Blooms News Service | @indiablooms | 11 Oct 2020, 10:34 am

Hyderabad/IBNS: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy has complained to Chief Justice of India S.A. Bobde against a senior judge of the Supreme Court, who is seen as the "CJI-in-waiting".

The Chief Minister has levelled some serious allegations against the Supreme Court judge.

He has claimed that the judge was acting on behalf of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and that he was very close to opposition leader and former chief minister Chandrababu Naidu.

In an annexure to the letter to CJI, Reddy has expressed "pain and anguish" that the "august institution of the high court is being used to destabilise and topple the democratically elected government''.

The letter also states that the apex court judge was influencing the Andhra Pradesh High Court, and it names the High court Chief Justice and four other judges.
