H.C. Judge withdraws resignation

New Delhi, April 4
In a curious turn, Delhi High Court Judge Shameet Mukherjee today withdrew his resignation given four days ago in the wake of allegations linking his name to the DDA scam, saying he wanted to clear his name, but would like to keep away from judicial work till then.

“I consider it my duty now to first clear my name before giving precedence to my personal domestic reasons,” he said in his handwritten letter to the President, saying the media had run him down, linking his name “unnecessarily to the DDA scam”. PTI
