Justice Markandey Katju Calls Mahatma Gandhi A British Agent. And No, He Did Not Mean 007


Justice Markandey Katju was an eminent judge of the Supreme Court of India and formerly, Chairman of the Press Council of India. A man with extensive juridical skill and knowledge which accompanies said experience. And when such a person writes and is active in the blogosphere, people take note. Keeping this in mind, he may wish to screen what he publishes under his name, online or otherwise. Particularly, calling M.K. Gandhi a British agent who harmed India, is not something that will endear him to a lot of people.



Personal views, mixed with extra strong, oft controversial opinions, seem to be a trademark of the former judge's writings. But when the largely good side of Gandhi's legacy is completely ignored and the 'father of the nation' is instead declared to be a British agent, we feel some logical step in the argument is missing.

Then again, Katju, has been courting controversy, before you could spell controversy.

Remember the time when he said judges can't have live-in relationships?
