Arun Jaitley has rubbished the allegations stating that the Chief Justice Gogoi is known for his strong values and ethics. "The Chief Justice of India is the first amongst the equals in the Supreme Court. For both the Chief Justice and the judicial institutions, credibility and respect are essential. Once the ‘Iqbal’ of judiciary is destroyed, the institution itself will crumble," Arun Jaitley wrote in his blog. The woman who had filed the complaint was terminated arbitrarily after she did not accede to the sexual advances of the Chief Justice.
