Two days after Press Council chairman and retired Supreme Court judge Markandey Katju raised some questions in personal criticism of DMK President Kalaignar, the DMK Organising Secretary R.S.Bharathi has strongly condemned Katju’s remarks and warned him of legal action if he persisted with personal attacks and making defamatory statements about Kalaignar. He has also demanded an unconditional apology from Katju. “You are also warned of legal action if you persist with the repeated personal attacks and defamatory statements against Kalaignar,” DMK Organizing Secretary RS Bharathi said in a statement.
Bharathi asked Katju whether he has even an iota of capacity to raise such questions. Having retired as judge of the Supreme Court and now holding the exalted position of safeguarding the freedom of the Press and its credibility, could he indulge in personal attacks with mudslinging discriminating people on the basis of Varnasrama dharma, he asked.
Kalaignar did not want to join issue with Katju because of the high offices held by him. But it was shameful that such a lowly man had occupied such high offices. Even after clean replies were given to the charges levelled by him, his persistence with personal attacks on Kalaignar could not be permitted as it was motivated.
Reacting to his demand, Bharathi raised questions about the value of assets owned by Katju and his close relatives, his wife, daughter, son-in-law and his uncle. “What was your asset when you were a judge? What are your assets now?” he asked. The DMK organizing secretary said the party can’t allow personal attacks against Kalaignar even after his explanation. “Our leader’s children are in public life. They’ve paid income tax as good citizens,” Bharathi said.
Bharathi has raised counter questions regarding Katju’s assets and asked for Katju to declare his property details. The party also condemned Katju for ‘selectively’ and ‘personally’ targeting the former Chief Minister.
Bharathi has unleashed explosive allegations against Katju in his statement.
1) You have not yet attempted to reply to various allegations against you when you were the Chief Justice of the Madras High Court.
2) You could not till date reply to the allegations of casteist oppression and sexual offences.
3) What was the account of your assets when you were a judge?
4) What was the account of your assets now when you are the Chairman of the Press Council?
5) What was the value of assets of your grandfather Kailashnath Katju?
6) What was the value of assets of your father S.N.Katju?
7) What is the value of assets of your wife Rupa?
8) What is the value of assets of your daughter and son-in-law?
9) What is the value of assets of your son and daughter in law?
10) What’s the value of the farm house you often visit in Chennai?
11) What is happening in your farm house? It is being said that you have purchased and presented a farm house nearby for another woman! Is it true that that woman is behind your statements?
12) When you went to New Delhi court, it is said that you took a woman from Chennai and allowed her to stay with you for two months purportedly for other reasons! Who has borne those expenses? Is it that political force to the tunes of which you are dancing?
Moreover, what were the properties of your uncle P.N.Katju before he took over as Allahabad High Court Chief Justice? Now how did the properties of for your family, and the family properties of your uncle and your relative and former wife of Sasi Tharoon come? Such questions are put forth before you, Bharathi said seeking his response.
