How I was almost sacked


I was appointed a permanent Judge of the Allahabad High Court in November 1991, and was almost sacked a few months thereafter. This is an untold story which you may find interesting.

 A few months after I was appointed a Judge a case came before me, Naresh Chand vs. District Inspector of Schools, Ghaziabad ( see 1992 Labour and Industrial Cases where the judgment is reported  ) which I heard and decided.

 The facts of the case were that a young man, Naresh Chand, had been appointed a biology teacher on ad hoc basis by the management of an obscure High School in District Ghaziabad in the State of U.P. in India.. Under the relevant rules, his appointment had to be approved by the District Inspector of Schools.

 The D.I.O.S. refused to approve the appointment on the ground that Naresh Chand belonged to an O.B.C. ( Other Backward Castes, which are the intermediate castes in India in the social ladder, below the so called ' upper castes ', but above the Scheduled Castes or dalits ), while the post had been reserved for a Scheduled Caste candidate.. Consequently his appointment was cancelled by the management of the school and his service was terminated. Naresh Chand challenged this before the Allahabad High Court, and the case came before me.

 I have always been passionate about science, and have always believed that science is the means of solving India's huge problems. This case gave me an opportunity of putting forward my philosophy in a judgment.

 The view I took was that though reservation on caste basis may be acceptable in other fields, they were not acceptable in the fields of science and technology because these fields were vital for India's progress, and hence no compromises were permissible in these fields. Consequently there could be no valid reservation in these fields, either for admission  in educational institutions or on jobs pertaining to these fields.  I remember a few passages of my judgment :

" The policy of reservations is basically a compromise between the need for excellence on the one hand, and the need to help the historically socially and economically disadvantaged classes on the other. However, in my opinion there can be no compromise in the fields of science and technology.

 When our country was on the scientific path it prospered. With the aid of science we had built mighty civilizations thousands of years ago when most people in Europe, except in Greece and Rome, were living in forests. We had made outstanding scientific discoveries, e.g. decimal system in mathematics, plastic surgery in medicine, etc. However subsequently we took to the unscientific path of superstitions and empty rituals, which has led us to disaster. The way out therefore is to go back again to the scientific path shown by our ancestors, the path of Aryabhatta and Brahmagupta, Sushrut and Charak, Panini and Patanjali, Ramanujan and Raman.

 While the socially and economically depressed classes should certainly be helped, the interest of the nation cannot be overlooked. As is said ' Interest Republicae Suprema Lex ' ( the interest of the republic is the supreme law ). A line has to be drawn somewhere to the policy of caste based reservations, and I draw the line at Science. Hence there can be no valid reservations in the field of science and technology."

  Consequently I quashed the order cancelling the appointment of Naresh Chand, and ordered his reinstatement.

 This judgment, delivered in 1992  (shortly after I had been appointed a Judge ), created a furore all over India. While huge rallies, particularly of students, were held in support of my judgment in many parts of India, there were counter rallies elsewhere. The media commented on it widely for several days, a large section supporting me, but another section attacking me.

 In Allahabad the ' Social Justice Movement '  publicly burnt my effigy and copies of my judgment. They resolved to place a lock on the gates of the Allahabad High Court, but were prevented by the police from doing so. A large contingent of policemen had to be placed around the premises of the Allahabad High Court. I started receiving threats by anonymous letters and on telephone.

 From the newspapers I learnt that the members of Parliament belonging to the Scheduled Castes and Tribes held a meeting in Delhi and decided to bring a bill in Parliament for my impeachment..

  My wife and other family members were scared. I had just been appointed a High Court Judge, and here I was , on the verge of being sacked ! For a long time I could not go for walks ( which I am fond of ), and except for going to the High Court had to remain confined to my house.
 Fortunately, the storm blew over and I survived.

  1. u were correct in ur personal opinion, but not in ur judgement. This is d second time i am observing that u used to mingle ur personal opinions into ur professional work and that is grossly incorrect and immoral! Dis is d concern of parliament which makes laws, if d law clearly specifies d rules of reservation, who r u to change that?

    IN ANOTHER 2 DECADES , 98% OF CHRISTIANS WORLDWIDE WILL CREMATE THEIR DEAD . . .

    THE WORLD IS COMING BACK TO HINDUISM . . .

    Hinduism is a spiritual code. It is a relentless pursuit of truth, flexible to suit all situations. . .

    Hinduism does NOT care for individual leadership or hierarchy. . .This is a religion without fundamentals or lack of compulsions. . .You cannot get ex-communicated for NOT toeing the line. . .

    This is the only religion that has NOT reduced itself to one man, one book, one faith. . . .

    hi s,

    it is the color of PURITY.

    FIRE CAN NEVER BE POLLUTED – REST EVERYTHING ON THE PLANET CAN BE CONTAMINATED.

    Saffron is the colour of the sacred homam fire.

    when parashurama and namboodiri party came from saraswati river to kerala in 4000 BC they brought the homam fire with them - this is compulsory.

    IF MEDICAL CANNABIS ( MARIJUANA ) IS MADE LEGAL, EVIL PHARMA WILL BE OUT OF BUSINESS .

    The Kerala sailors took it for the Pharaoh for medical use as a part of Ayurveda medical concoctions. . .

    Cannabis is mentioned in our Atharva Veda of 5000 BC. Vedas will NOT propagate anything which harms man, the planet , the flora or the fauna or even the insects. . .

    Bhang ( Cannabis drink ) was not outlawed during the British rule in India. India has to be one of very few countries in the world where one can legally stand on the street and have a cannabis drink without fear of being thrown into jail.. Unlike alcohol and other drugs, there is little or no social stigma attached to bhang.

    Cannabis so ingrained in the culture of India. Although selling of cannabis is prohibited in India, it’s readily available and no attempts are made to arrest the sellers. . . .


    4000 BC - Ayurveda uses Cannabis for various medications and puts it in writing . . .

    Rothschild who owns EVIL PHARMA forces the US Congress to pass the Marijuana tax act which criminalizes the Cannabis drug in 1937. . .

    WE INDIANS WANT MODI TO RE-INDUCT MEDICAL CANNABIS INTO AYURVEDA . .

  7. STOP PRESS:

    CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS?

    AL GORE HAS COME ALL THE WAY TO INDIA , TO MAYBE WHISPER IN HIS EAR THAT HE WILL GET A NOEBL PEACE PRIZE , IF HE PLAYS BALL AND SELLS BHARATMATA IN THE ZIONIST WHOREHOUSE.

    AL GORE IS RIGHT NOW ON NDTV TALKING TO BARKHA DUTT.

    HE IS TRYING TO MOULD INDIAN PERCEPTION WITH HIS BULLSH#T—AND HE IS PRAISING GUJARAT MODEL , TO PLACE ALICE IN GUJJULAND MODI ON CHANNE KA JHAAD..

    When Mr. Modi was chief minister of Gujarat, “two-thirds of all the solar panels installed in India” were in that state, Mr. Gore said. “He has credibility,” he added.

    HE IS HERE TO LIE THROUGH HIS TEETH, QUOTE FAKE FIGURES AND PERCENTAGES – TO FORCE INDIA TO MOTHBALL OUR ABUNDANT RESERVES OF COAL .

    OF COURSE MODI WILL PLAY BALL, FOR HE HOPED TO GET A NOBEL PEACE PRIZE.

    Al Gore is in Delhi to warn India about the dangers of pollution and rising global temperatures, as Rothschild’s agent .

    “Indians must know that this is a life or death issue,” Mr. Gore said in an interview with the television channel NDTV.

    WHY IS THIS ROTHSCHILDs AGENT SO MUCH WORRIED ABOUT THE HEALTH AND COMFORT OF INDIAN PEOPLE ? WE INDIANS KNOW HOW TO TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES WITHOUT AL GOREs HELP. WE INDIANS SEND A ROCKET TO MARS WITHOUT AL GOREs HELP.

    Al Gore shows you heart wrenching pictures of poor struggling polar bears floating around on little ice islands, never telling you that this is normal behavior for polar bears, which are capable of swimming 100 miles , never stymied by open water.

    Global Historical Climate Network, a U.S. Government entity, has been FUDGING the temperature findings to reflect a warming trend.

    Ahead of the UN climate conference later this year in Paris, the national capital is playing host to a meet led by former US Vice President Al Gore which aims to focus on the renewable energy potential for India and the key role that the country plays in the lead up to the discussions in the French capital.

    Al Gore’s pseudo science is focused primarily on carbon dioxide (CO2) claiming they were trapping heat while being produced by all manner of human activity related to generating energy with coal.

    There is absolutely NO correlation between temperature variation over the past two centuries and human related CO2 emissions.

    R controlled agency UN is supporting this FOUL LIE of CO2 being a greenhouse gas. Nature takes care of CO2 . Plants breathe out CO2 at night.

    CO2, is essential for all life on Earth because it is the food that nourishes all vegetation. The Earth has passed through many periods of high levels of CO2 and many cycles of warming and cooling that are part of the life of the planet.

    The whole idea is to prevent India and China, by an exhorbitant Carbon Tax -- from burning coal ( both countries do NOT have oil/ gas ) and hence prevent them from overtaking USA as world’s No1 superpower.

    There is absolutely NO scientific evidence to prove that global warming is real, and that the whole thing has become nothing but a political tool that is not backed by true scientific evidence.

    The ocean is not rising . The polar ice is increasing, not melting away. Polar bears are increasing in number. Heat waves have actually diminished, not increased. Why is Niagra frozen today ?

    The IPCC depended upon the public’s lack of knowledge regarding the science involved and the global warming hoax was greatly aided because the ROTHSCHILD CONTROLLED BENAMI MAIN STREAM MEDIA promoted the hoax.

    OBAMA LIED IN HIS SOTU ADDRESS . There has been no warming over 18 years.

    At the heart of this FOUL hoax is a total contempt for poor third world nations , with a sinister depopulation agenda.

    Modi , be warned—your Gujarati model useless solar panel and wind turbine industries that produce so little actual electricity are a NEGATIVE DRAG on the national power grid.

    USA has 18.2 trillion USD national debt , which can never ever be repaid – unless there is WW3 and a huge scam .
