Pained by Lawyers' allegations against the Judiciary, a senior Judge of the Karnataka High Court, who was attending a send-off to Chief Justice Ritu Raj Awasthi on Friday, offered to behead himself if he had erred in his duty.
"If I've made a mistake, I'm prepared to stand between Vidhana Soudha & the high court & behead myself. That is the spirit with which I work as a judge," Justice B Veerappa said, expressing pain & anguish over certain wild allegations made by some Lawyers against Judges. At the farewell organized by the Advocates' Association of Bangalore, he urged the president of the Bengaluru Bar Association to take action against such advocates.
'Judges have to use Sudarshana Chakra after limits'
The Judge referred to an incident in his Court hall on Thursday where a Lawyer misbehaved with the bench.
Justice Veerappa said the Judges sit in glass houses & it is for the Advocates' association to come to their rescue when certain unscrupulous members of the bar make wild & baseless allegations against the judiciary.
He said, "Judges have no option, but to use Sudarshana Chakra after certain limits".
AAB president Vivek Subba Reddy said they would soon discuss the issue.
