Didn't make unwelcome advances towards intern: AK Ganguly writes to CJI

Kolkata: Denying that he had ever harassed or made any unwelcome advance to any intern, former Supreme Court judge AK Ganguly today complained to Chief Justice of India P Sathasivam saying he was not addressed correctly by the apex court. “I have been distressed by some recent happenings. I am anguished that the Supreme Court under your Lordship did not address me correctly,” Justice Ganguly said in an eight-page-long letter to the CJI, which he said was also being forwarded to President Pranab Mukherjee.

The very suggestion of it, to say the least, is out of tune with my personal conduct,” said Justice Ganguly, who is the Chairman of the West Bengal Human Rights Commission. “I have made helpful contributions to many interns both male and female. To this date, I am treated with unbound respect and regards by them,” he wrote in the letter. PTI
