\"Ram-Jethmalani\"<\/p>\n

Eminent Jurist Ram Jethmalani has launched a blistering no-holds-barred attack to challenge the appointment of K. V. Chowdary, the former CBDT Chairman, as the new Central Vigilance Commissioner (\u201cCVC\u201d). <\/p>\n

In a letter dated 26th May 2015 addressed to the Prime Minister, Ram Jethmalani stated that it is his duty to \u201cexpose some people\u2019s bad record<\/em>\u201d and that one of such persons is the Finance Minister, Arun Jaitley. He also stated that he has \u201cmade no secret<\/em>\u201d of his \u201ccontempt<\/em>\u201d for the FM. Ram Jethmalani added that he had repeatedly warned that the Finance Minister has \u201cno interest whatsoever in identification and punishment of powerful offenders or in repatriation of the proceeds of their crimes<\/em>\u201d. <\/p>\n

\"KV_Chowdary\"<\/p>\n

Mr. Jethmalani is opposed to the appointment of K. V. Chowdary as the CVC. He stated that Chowdary \u201cby no means has a clean record<\/em>\u201d. He also claimed that during KV Chowdary\u2019s posting as a member of the SIT, \u201cnothing remains a secret from the criminals involved<\/em>\u201d. <\/p>\n

Ram Jethmalani also made a pointed reference to Ms. Anita Kapoor, the present CBDT Chairperson, by stating that she is \u201cone more character to be avoided<\/em>\u201d. <\/p>\n

Ram Jethmalani addressed another letter dated 2nd June 2015 to the President in which he stated that he is in a state of \u201cgreat mental excitement<\/em>\u201d. He said that he is \u201cshocked<\/em>\u201d at the appointment of KV Chowdary as the CVC and that it is the \u201cgreatest disaster that will fall on this unfortunate nation<\/em>\u201d. Jethmalani pleaded with the President to call for the entire record of KV Chowdary\u2019s \u201cinvolvement in criminal activities from which he has managed to get out with the help of corrupt and anti-national elements<\/em>\u201d. <\/p>\n

Ram Jethmalani has requested the President not to accord sanction to the appointment of KV Chowdary as the new CVC. <\/p>\n

A report on Mr. KV Chowdary’s career and track record is available here<\/a>. <\/p>\n
