Press Release
Why impeachment of Justice Dinakaran only?
Dharna Continuing since 19.11.2009 comes to an end
New Delhi, December 22, 2009.
Today's dharna was organized by th Eastern U.P. unit of the All India Confederation of SC/ST Organizations at Jantar Mantar, New Delhi. This dharna has been going on since 19.11.2009 and today was the concluding day of this dharna. Today's dharna was held under the leadership of Shri Bhawan Nath Paswan, State President, Shri Ram Singh, State Organizing Secretary, Shri Som Nath, Zonal President, Allahabad, and Shri Parmeshwar, District President, Allahabad.
Main issue at today's dharna was the impeachment of the Chief Justice of Karnataka High Court. While addressing the dharna, Dr. Udit Raj, National Chairman of the Confederation said that about one year back, a sum of Rs. 15 lakhs was found in cash as bribe at the residence of a Judge but no impeachment proceedings were against that Judge.The truth is that the security guards were not informed in advance that somebody was coming with a big amount of money. As such they informed about this incident to the Police. When the news spread like a wild fire in the junge, it was said that the concerned Judge had nothing to do with this money. It is very surprising as to why a sum of Rs. 15 lakhs will be delivered at somebody's residence without any purpose. A few months earlier, the Chief Justice of Kolkata High Court talked of starting impeachment proceedings against a Judge of that High Court but the matter was hushed up. A few years back, a Judge of the
Rajasthan High Court was involved in a sex scandal but no impeachment action was taken against him. A plot of land was allotted to Retired Chief Justice of the Surpreme Court, Shri A.S. Anand, at the rate of Re. 1/- per square yard and the issue was given wide coverage. Here also, no impeachment action was initiated against Justice Anand. Again, it is quite well known that Justice Anand was also involved in a fake age certificate. A serving Judge of the Supreme Court of India is involved in the Ghaziabad Provident Fund Scam. Why he is not being impeached. Dr. Udit Raj further said that in the bribery case, Justice Dinakaran should be given an opportunity to defend himself.
While addressing the dharna, State President of th Confederation, Shri Bhawan Nath Paswan said that due to very negligible participation of Dalits and Backwards in judiciary, the rights and privileges given to Dalits in Legislature and Executive, get diluated by the judiciary. There should, therefore, reservation in judiciary also. He said that dharna which has been going on sinc 19.11.2009 is a historic event and unique in itself as a dharna of such a long duration by Dalit employees and officers has not so far been held by any other organization. He further said that the main demands of the Confederation are - reservation in private sector, enactment of Reservation Act, Abolition of labour contract system in government services in the matter of recruitment from clerk to safaikaramcharis, check on price rise, caste certificates issued by one state should be valid in all the states, reservation in higher judiciary and army, immediate filling up of
back log vacancies, land to the landless should be ensured, reservation in government contract.
In this dharna, another unique feature was observed which was that Dr. Udit Raj National Chairman of the confederation had staked his life and went on a fast unto death which other Dalit leaders could not do. Through this dharna, Government's plans to finish reservation and filling up of back log vacancies have been dashed to the ground.
