Sexual Harassment Allegations Against CJI Ranjan Gogoi

Justice NV Ramana Exits Panel Probing Sexual Harassment Allegations Against CJI Ranjan Gogoi.

The complainant had on this Wednesday questioned his essence on the board and had guaranteed that he was a "dear companion of the CJI and like a relative to him" and used to habitually visit his living arrangement.

Justice NV Ramana has recused himself from the three-part board established for an in-house investigation into the sexual harassment charges leveled against Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi by a previous Supreme Court staff member.

The complainant had on Wednesday questioned his quality on the board and had asserted that he was a "dear companion of the CJI and like a relative to him" and used to as often as possible visit his living arrangement.

The woman staffer who has accused the CJI stated that the inquiry committee constituted by the SC does not have majority woman members and an external member as mandated by the law under Visakha guidelines and the POSH Act.
