Calcutta High Court Judge Abhijit Ganguly to resign, may contest Lok Sabha elections
Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay says, "...Resign from the post of a judge in High Court Calcutta. For the last two or more years I have been dealing with some matters, especially education matters, regarding which a huge corruption has been discovered and unearthed. A large number of important persons in the education sector of this government are now languishing in jail, under trial. Thereafter, now I am taking labour matters. There also large scams of employers in respect of provident fund gratuity, etc. I have also passed certain orders in those respects. But what I have failed while doing these matters of labour matters, labour legislation, that I have felt that my job in this duty, my job is over. This is the call of my conscience. Now I should go to the larger people, larger area. In court, a judge deals with the matters which come before him if a person files a case. But in our country and also in our state, West Bengal, there are a large number of very helpless people. Which I have found...So I have thought that only the political field can give people who want to take steps in respect of those helpless people a chance to act for them..."
