L Victoria Gowri's appointment as #MadrasHighCourt judge brought up in #RajyaSabha
TMC MP @jawharsircar on Law Ministry stating that differences of opinion between executive and judiciary are mutually reconciled: So am I to understand that all differences are mutually reconciled?...
...And in the same sentence you have used the words, "Only the appropriate person is appointed as a judge". Do you consider Victoria Gowri's appointment to really (be of) an appropriate person? One who has been accused in public of casteist remarks, of remarks against minorities?

In the last week, not only 27 Opposition MPs have been suspended (4 in #LokSabha, 23 in #RajyaSabha), but as many as 97 Questions asked by these MPs have been DELETED & Govt has avoided answering these Qs!
