Whose money was that which went up in flames at Justice Varma’s residence? Was it his, or Justice Chandrachud’s? That is the gossip in Delhi.
I was the first person to seek the registration of an FIR regarding the crores of rupees that went up in flames at the residence of Justice Verma.Later, I heard from important sources that the money belonged to Justice Chandrachud. Gradually, talk spread among the members of the Bar, and now it has spread like […]
“Be You Ever So High, the Law Is Above You”: The Burnt Cash Case Involving Justice Varma Must Not Die Down. Whose Money Was It? Who Paid It? What Was Justice Chandrachud’s Role, If Any? An FIR Must Be Registered and the Matter Investigated.
I am a Syrian Christian. We have been Christians for generations—for many, many centuries, even before the Portuguese planted Christianity, Catholicism. Our forefathers came from Syria and married local Hindu women. It is said that many Brahmins accepted the faith under the Patriarch of Antioch, namely, St. Peter. Christians in Kerala generally support the Congress […]
I mentioned the petition seeking reconsideration of the NJAC judgment before the CJI. The audio and video were muted, so the world did not come to know what happened.
I have been seeking a reconsideration of the NJAC judgment from the very day it was pronounced in 2015. I took up the matter with almost all Chief Justices since then, except Justice Gogoi. I didn’t take it up with Justice Gogoi because I hardly had any hope at all, whereas I had some hope […]
Why am I irreverent, nay contemptuous, of the Supreme Court of India?
If something is stated in one or two pages, people can read and understand it. Similarly, if something horrible and atrocious—against common sense and reason—is written in a hundred pages, who has the time to read and understand it? So, all these long judgments are absurd.Sorry to use such a strong term, but the Supreme […]
First-generation lawyers and the underprivileged, wake up! You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Assert your rights and unite.
Our justice delivery system serves only a handful of lawyer and judicial families and dynasties. Invoking the basic structure doctrine, they have rewritten the Constitution and created the Collegium, arrogating to themselves the power to appoint judges. Through PILs, they make laws behind the backs of the people affected and run the Government. Using the […]
Mullaperiyar: The Ignorance of Fundamental Principles of Law by Our Lawyers and Judges Puts Millions of Keralites at Risk.

My Philosophy
The fact that I do not approve of family dynasties—whether in the Congress, the DMK, the Akalis or the Thackerays—does not mean that I support the BJP. I support whoever does the right thing. It does not matter who does it: whoever is right is right, and whoever is wrong is wrong. I stand with […]
Why does the Supreme Court hear only Sibal, Singhvi, Bhushan, Jaising, and their ilk—the dynasties—and shoo away ordinary lawyers?
Mrs. Indira Jaising is a well-known and respected senior advocate, but many of her submissions and pleadings have shocked me. Yesterday in the Supreme Court, while complaining that a lady journalist had been sexually assaulted, she asked for a committee to investigate the allegations against a police officer. The reason she offered was: how could […]

PILs concerning the public at large cannot be heard except as representative proceedings, with a notice to the public at large affording them an opportunity to partake; otherwise, it is an instrument of injustice.Read the Prayers as infa:
Supreme Court of India WP(C) 26 Mathews J Nedumpara & othersVs.Union of India & others PRAYERS a) To declare that the proposition that an order or judgment of this Hon’ble Court, and in particular those under Article 142 of the Constitution, is binding on all is absolutely flawed, inasmuch as, when Parliament enacts a law, […]
