A criminal defamation case involving Indian Forest Service officer Sanjeev Chaturvedi and Central Administrative Tribunal judge Manish Garg faces new hurdles, as a magisterial court refuses to hear the case.
Additional chief judicial magistrate Neha Kushwaha has recused herself due to her family ties to other judicial members involved in a connected contempt petition against Chaturvedi.
This case adds to Chaturvedi's unique record of judicial recusals, now totaling 14. Known for his role as a whistleblower, Chaturvedi exposed notable scams in Haryana and at AIIMS, New Delhi.
