The Modi government has rejected two recommendations sent by the Chief Justice of India for heading dispute redressal panels.
Sources said one of the names was of a person who, while in office, pointed a pistol at his colleague's spouse. The photo copy of the security and intelligence agency reports mentioning this incident were personally submitted by a senior Union minister, as it was considered so damaging.
Following this, there was no other option but to withdraw the officer's name, it is learnt.
