NGO writes to PM, Prez seeking 'justice' for AK Ganguly

Kolkata: Terming any move to remove Justice(retd) AK Ganguly as chairman of the West Bengal Human Rights Commission a violation of the Right to Life and Liberty guaranteed by the Constitution, an NGO has written to the President and the PMO seeking "justice"."Media trial and biased approach of feminist organisations have already pronounced Justice Ganguly guilty on a mere accusation of an intern. Removing him will violate the constitutional Right to Life and Liberty. Ganguly has not been given a fair representation," said Amit Gupta, general secretary of National Coalition for Men (NCM).[caption id="attachment_1304853" align="alignleft" width="380"] Justice AK Ganguly.

Why then Ganguly is subjected to such inhuman behavior and mental torture? This needs to stop immediately.""Many have demanded Justice Ganguly's resignation, but none are keen in the real issue. The real issue is to bring out the truth. A fair probe is the need of the hour," Gupta added.PTI
