When I appeared before the the three-judge Supreme Court panel, I was told it was confidential,” he told a news channel. He said that in normal course the respondent should get a copy of the petition because his reputation was at stake. He said that he had never imagined that such a thing could befall him. To a question, he said that he has left it to the people to form their own opinion on the matter. PTI
