Justice NV Ramana Exits Panel Probing Sexual Harassment Charges Against CJI

New Delhi: Justice N.V. Ramana, one of the three judges of the Supreme Court’s in-house panel probing sexual harassment charges against Chief Justice of India (CJI) Ranjan Gogoi, on Thursday opted out of it following objections from the complainant.

The woman, a former employee of the top court, had claimed that Justice Ramana was a “family friend” of the Chief Justice and close to him. The panel should have more women judges, she wrote in the letter to the SC.

The panel led by Justice SA Bobde was formed on Tuesday. He had picked the members. “I picked Justice Ramana because he is next to me in seniority and Justice Banerjee because she is a woman judge,” he had said on Tuesday.
