BENGALURU: Pained by advocates' allegations against the judiciary, a senior judge of the Karnataka HC, who was attending a send-off to Chief Justice Ritu Raj Awasthi on Friday, offered to behead himself if he had erred in his duty.
"If I've made a mistake, I'm prepared to stand between Vidhana Soudha and the high court and behead myself. That is the spirit with which I work as a judge," Justice B Veerappa said, expressing pain and anguish over certain wild allegations made by some advocates against judges. At the farewell organized by Advocates' Association of Bangalore, he urged the president of Bengaluru bar association to take action against such advocates. tnn
