Mr. Mishra had issued a statement after an in-house panel led by Supreme Court judge, Justice S.A. Bobde, concluded that the woman’s allegations against Chief Justice Gogoi had “no substance”. Mr. Mishra had gone on to comment about the complainant’s intentions, besides lauding the in-house panel and calling for amendments in the law on sexual offences. The letter asked Mr. Mishra to step down from his post.
