Justice Ganguly case: Centre likely to decide on Presidential reference today
January 02, 2014
The Union Cabinet is likely to take a decision today on sending a Presidential reference to the Supreme Court for conducting a probe into allegations of sexual harassment against Justice AK Ganguly, who is accused of sexually harassing a young law intern, reports NDTV.

"The home ministry will place a note before the cabinet tomorrow. The cabinet will take a call," Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde said yesterday.

Sources said once the cabinet clears the proposal, it will be sent to President Pranab Mukherjee for approval. Since the President can only act on the advice of the cabinet, he had referred the matter to the government.
