Ex-SG Gopal Subramanium angered by NDA 'rejection'
- 5 years ago
After former Solicitor General Gopal Subramanium withdrew his candidature for appointment as Supreme Court judge saying that he was "let down" by the Narendra Modi-led NDA government at the Centre over lack of support and to protect his "honour and dignity", the BJP on Wednesday rubbished the charges made by him.
The BJP said that there was no basis to the allegations being made by Subramanium and added that, "The decision was taken by keeping only the merits in mind."
Subramanian in a letter to the Chief Justice of India wrote, "I'm fully conscious that my independence as a lawyer is causing apprehensions that I will not toe the government line. This factor has been decisive in refusing to appoint me."
