- 3 years ago
This time last year, on March 19, 2020, Ranjan Gogoi, the former chief justice of India, took his oath as a member of the Rajya Sabha after being nominated by the government.
Despite the criticism he faced as CJI, Gogoi proceeded to accept the Narendra Modi government’s offer to nominate him to the Rajya Sabha.
But what has been the track record of former CJI Ranjan Gogoi in the Rajya Sabha? How many debates, questions and intervention has Ranjan Gogoi, the parliamentarian, submitted in the Rajya Sabha?
The episode of The Wire Explains is based on an article by the lawyer and research Arvind Kurian Abraham, titled 'Sealed Cover MP: The Silence of Parliamentarian Ranjan Gogoi'
