Tapping of 3 mobiles revealed corruption of HC judge, Justice Katju says

Recently, Justice Markandey Katju, a former Supreme Court judge who is now chairman of the Press Council of India, made the revelation that a "tainted" judge was confirmed in his post owing to political pressure. Now, Justice Katju has written a blog post making fresh allegations of corruption in the judiciary. TOI reproduces the post.


There was a judge in a high court who had a very bad reputation about his integrity, and on this account was transferred to Allahabad high court. Later, with passage of time he became the acting chief justice of Allahabad high court. Some people started demanding that he be made chief justice of some high court, and later brought to the Supreme Court.

The then Chief Justice of India, Justice Kapadia, had received several complaints about this judge, and requested me to find out the true facts about that judge (I was then a judge of the Supreme Court).

At that time I had to go to Allahabad, my home town, for attending a function. While there I contacted some lawyers I knew, and got three mobile numbers of the agents of this judge through whom he was taking money. On returning to Delhi I gave these three mobile numbers to Justice Kapadia, and suggested that he get these numbers tapped through intelligence agencies.

About two months thereafter Justice Kapadia told me that he had done as I had suggested, and the conversations tapped revealed the corruption of this judge.

After this, Justice Kapadia should have called this judge to Delhi and asked for his resignation, failing which he would refer the matter to Parliament for impeachment, but he did no such thing (though he did not allow the judge to become chief justice of any high court or an SC judge).

Most CJIs are reluctant to expose corruption in the judiciary thinking this will defame the judiciary, and so they prefer to bury corruption under the carpet, not realizing that the bulge under the carpet will show.

Some think exposing corruption defames the judiciary. My reply is: Does corruption by judges defame the judiciary, or does exposing such corruption defame it ?

I may give another example. When I was acting chief justice of Allahabad high court, I went to Delhi and met Justice Lahoti, the then Chief Justice of India, and gave him a chit containing names of five judges of Allahabad high court who were doing shocking things. Justice Lahoti asked me what should be done. I replied that if he permitted, I would solve the problem in 24 hours. He asked how.
I replied that I was going to Allahabad by the night train, and on reaching there would tell the registrar general to telephone these judges, and tell them the chief justice had instructed that they would not be allowed entry into the high court premises. Police was being posted at the gate of the HC with instructions from me that these judges were not to be allowed entry.

Their chambers had been locked, and they would receive their salary checks at home, and they need not come to the high court. I did not want to see them inside the high court premises as they had disgraced it.
When I said this, Justice Lahoti said, "Please do not do this, because then the politicians will get a handle, and then they will set up a National Judicial Commission". I replied that since he was not permitting me to do this, I would not, but he may take whatever action he thought fit.

Later, some of the five judges whose names I gave were transferred to another HC.

But is transfer a solution? Such corrupt judges should be sacked, but this is not done to 'avoid defaming the judiciary'. I again ask: Does corruption by judges defame the judiciary, or does exposing such corruption defame it?

I have given only two instances of corruption in this post, but I can give several more.

Dear Naveen & Others,
Thanks for all your support to the other buyers. The long social discussion about the Era Divine Floor will really be helpfull to all the buyers.

Please give a gist of the case to all the mates.

As you are fully aware of the matter, can you pls advise on the below queries.
- Is the problem only with the High rise Era Divine Floors or with the Low rise as well ?
- What is the current status of the case filed in the court ? How many members have left the case proceedings and how many are left ?

[naveenarichwal]

Era Low floor & high rise are on same land & license hence problem is same for both.

There were 10 buyers who initiated fight in court out of which 2 exited and now there are 8 remaining. The case is ongoing in Punjab & haryana high court and next date of hearing is 19-8-14.

For further details contact Mr Ashish Dua 8860078800.

Dear Mr. Naveen

The two buyers out of 10 who exited, do you know the reason why. Did they make out of court settlement? Whatis the latest update on the case?

Thanks and regards,
Kanchan Dutta

Hi Kanchan-are you interested in pursuing this matter legally? Do let me know. I also opted for subvention plan :-(

[naveenarichwal]

Even after such a great Cheating , Majority of the persons will not go Legal .The Builder is well aware about this. He knows that only 1-2 % of the buyers will go legal and he will deal with them, by the Bought out Police,Judges and advocates.

Thanks Brother for this information and insight !! it would be great if could please also suggest a viable solution.

[naveenarichwal]

Only solution is that at least 50% of the buyers who feel cheated should go legal than only the court will take them seriously otherwise they will be called blackmailers.

[puruu.mehrotra]

Going legal is better option once case between ERA and BPTP reaches a meaningful solution. Also going legal and involving SEBI has worsened the scenario as SEBI is now after extracting money from ERA for itself rather than working for people. So in a way going legal has worsened the scenario.

[punia7]

I don't see an end to tussle between this love triangle of BPTP - ERA - SEBI? I am confused on the way out and its near possibility in time? I am so depressed that even after paying money, TAKING a home loan on my head... I am still not anywhere close to getting this.

[puruu.mehrotra]

We have exposed the builder so much legally and in media that now its very difficult for ERA to building divine court and get registries done illegally. In a dream to get a fully legal home, we have reached a point that even getting an illegal one seems to be a distant dream.
So I wonder if legal proceedings should be stopped till project is complete.

[naveenarichwal]

Legal Proceedings are going to be compounded against Era because the buyers in Gurgaon,Bagadurgarh,Divine court,will do all to teach era a lesson.Soon Era directors will have to appear in different different courts in Gurgaon,Delhi,Noida,Fbd, Bahadurgarh,Chandigarh etc.

Leave alone the SEBI & DGTCP.

Also now a Option is their in consumer courts, that Victim can file a complaint at place of his residence e.g if a person who bought a flat in Divine court gets transferred from say Faridabad to Banglore, than he/She has the option to file the case in Consumer court in Banglore and Era landmark cannot do anything about that.

[naveenarichwal]

SEBI acted after they received several complaints from Buyers who are suffering in Gurgaon projects.

Hi Naveen Ji

Could you please confirm if it has become the law to file the consumer court where the victim is residing rather than where the incident was occurred...Please advise.

Manoj Kaushik
