Although there may not be direct proof, but it is almost certain that 90% of it went to Sonia Gandhi’s Swiss Bank accounts or some other secret haven where she has stacked it it. After all she was the real Prime Minister from 2004 to 2014, and Manmohan Singh was only a puppet. So even if there is no direct evidence of Sonia’s corruption, there is strong circumstantial evidence, and people have even been hanged on circumstantial evidence.

 In Worcester v. Georgia (1832), the Supreme Court overturned the conviction of a missionary living among the Cherokee Nation for refusing to take an oath to obey the laws of Georgia. In an opinion written by Chief Justice John Marshall, the Court held that the Cherokees constituted an independent political community to which the state of Georgia could not apply its laws. Accordingly, the Court ordered Worcester’s release from custody.

Once when I was a judge in Allahabad High Court a lawyer who would always argue in Hindi presented a petition before me titled ‘ Pratibhu Avedan Patra ‘. I asked the lawyer what ‘Pratibhu’ meant.

There are tens of thousands of Urdu verses, by hundreds of Urdu poets. A sher ( couplet ) or nazm ( poem ) to be appropriately quoted in a judgment should be ‘mauzu’ ( in Hindi ‘praasangik’ ) i.e. pertinent and befitting to the context. One cannot quote any verse in any judgment at random. If quoted appropriately it gives beauty and depth to the judgment, by highlighting some idea or emotion, to make it touching, and giving it poignancy. I tried to do this in my judgments, which can all be seen online.

I first contacted my friend Irfan Ali, who hails from Meerut, India, and lives in Princeton New Jersey, USA. Irfan has lived in America for about 20 years.
