Row over phone conversation between him and suspended judicial officer
The Supreme Court on Monday asked former Andhra Pradesh High Court judge, Justice V. Eswaraiah, to file an affidavit about the “private phone conversation” between him and a suspended judicial officer, which the State High Court dubbed a “serious conspiracy” to destabilise the judiciary.
The High Court, on August 13, ordered a judicial inquiry by former Supreme Court judge, Justice R.V. Raveendran, into the phone chat. It had termed the conversation an attempt to “malign” a senior sitting Supreme Court judge and the then Chief Justice of the Andhra Pradesh High Court.
