Following his resignation as a judge of the Calcutta High Court on Tuesday morning, Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay declared his intention to join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).
“Maybe on 7th (March) in the afternoon. There is a tentative program, when I will join BJP,” the former Calcutta high court judge said at a press conference.
Earlier today, Gangopadhyay sent a letter of resignation to President Droupadi Murmu, copying Chief Justice DY Chandrachud of India and Chief Justice TS Sivagnanam of the Calcutta High Court.
Using the phrase “his conscience calling,” he had made hints about entering politics.
“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,” Gangopadhyay told ANI.
