The CIA’s alleged funding of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in order to “implement the object and the policy of the American government” through Arvind Kejriwal and company, was one of the wrongs Sharma set out to correct through one of his PILs.
It’s clear that Sharma pretty much hates advocate Prashant Bhushan for “Xeroxing” his petition against the coal scam, according to Sharma, then making minor changes and manipulating the registry to file his own petition before Sharma’s. “People who play dirty tricks like these do it for credit,” he said.
Some more of Sharma’s views, loosely translated from Hindi:
On heinous crimes: Copying another advocate’s petition, and then through politics or through managing channels telling everyone that the petition was his idea is worse than a heinous crime. Taking credit for another’s work is a nuisance and this has become a trend in the Supreme Court these days.
On rape accused: you cannot penetrate without being excited. If you can’t do that how can you go for sex, and how can you go for rape? So first step is excitement. And a man will be excited when he gets the “atmosphere”. And whether he gets an atmosphere or not depends on the circumstances in which he is. Will you be able to do it? Tell me. This has nothing to do with whether you are married or not. Go watch a “porn movie” today you’ll get to know.
On rape victims: Simple analogy. If you have a bread or sweetmeat and you put it outside your house can you tell me what will happen? Neighbourhood dogs will come eat it and go. Not a piece would be left for you. If you keep that box protected in the fridge the dogs won’t get a chance.
It is the responsibility of every woman to keep herself protected. If she puts herself in an unprotected situation she is to blame. Why don’t you guys tell people that your protection is in your own hands? Whether you are homeless or have a home your protection is in your own hands. You create circumstances for rape on your own and when something happens to you you become innocent. Mis-happenings happen because of you.
On rape in society: To end rape first thing will be to end the dirty atmosphere that has been created. Sexual atmosphere should be stopped. Any sexual pose should not be allowed because a sexual pose create a sexual affect in the mind of any person. With clothes or without clothes. [The media] puts sexual effects in the mind of innocent boys to make money, and provoke people, then say that we are doing nothing.
On “Kanya”: In India “virgin” is a swear word. It is a western word. Our girls are only “kanya”.

@ Kian/ Prachi -
This is a filthy comment, and it is strange that you published this. I thought baseless/ personal attacks was where LI drew the line?
@ Him with the pseudonym "NUJS" at Comment # 2-
You, from the stinking drains of a law school trembling with insecurity, don't worry about us. We're doing extremely well for ourselves. Our evenings aren't spent spouting vitriolic comments on a website out of sheer insecurity and jealousy. There are those who battle for your right to keep anonymous on the Internet, because they flatter you with the assumption that you possess far greater common sense and intelligence than you do, and assume that you can balance that fundamental freedom with your fundamental duties. I shudder at the thought that you are a lawyer or a law student. Quit. It is a cruel world out there and there is no room for sub-standard, illogical, morons like yourself. For your benefit - NUJS grads get the jobs they want. There are those who quit their jobs or who opt to make their careers in other fields - and they do remarkably well in those fields. Governmental agencies, services, judiciary, litigation, political bodies, NGOs, entrepreneurs, teachers, arts, academicians, etc.
I can now go on to to say filthy things about your law school, but I won't. Grow up. If not, then at least grow a pair and stop taking cover in anonymity and put up a better argument. Loser!
The commenter could have replaced any other college name for NUJS and it would have worked as well...
Best wishes,
Kian
Sorry Kian, a bit disappointed here. Moderation has to be viewed not only from the viewpoint of the person posting the comment, but also from the viewpoint of those who are targeted. For LI and you personally this may be an obvious joke. But while you admit that the college name was not relevant at all, at least that should have been moderated?

I do not see NALSAR and NLS commenting this way. Surely NUJS are insecure now! Proud of NLS, NALSAR and other NLU's to not bother since they feel secure and take such comments in a light fun spirit!
You should officially endorse this video!

touched a sensitive nerve, is it? Why are you so bothered to respond to the vitriolic comment. Your law school will not be upgraded/downgraded because of this comment (which I assume would have been made as a joke) on this LI forum.
Recruiters will continue to recruit your graduates, NUJS grads will continue to get the "jobs they want".
Please don't get so bothered about the comments that are posted on this site. Are you new to this site? There have been far more vitriolic comments about your law school (and other NLUs) on this site before. Chill

Truth hurts! Though as Kian said it was mud slinging as always, but seems NUJS is really insecure about their future. Ya seeing the things going on there, who wouldn't be insecure at NUJS!
Kian- by fanning this guy, you are actually encouraging him...
But our society is like that people don't want to hear anything against rape victim, most of people think from heart not mind.
not all but many cases, if you see thoroughly(by putting sympathy aside for some time), you will see girl/woman is also responsible.
Many cases in offices girls wants to take advantage of her beauty, when this gets leaked or hidden agenda doesn't work then start crying.
he has got pt smwer thou.. haha
