The Supreme Court's internal inquiry panel has given a clean chit to CJI Ranjan Gogoi in the sexual harassment case against him.

This has been quite the controversial case as it is against the CJI, and there was lot of questions about the way it was handled right from the beginning when CJI Gogoi held a special hearing but didn't officially include his name. Then, the complainant backed out saying that she had reservations about receiving justice from the committee.

Recently, there were also reports of Justice DY Chandrachud writing a letter to the inquiry committee asking them to not proceed with the hearing in the absence of the complainant because the reputation of the SC depended on it.

And indeed, the reputation does depend on how the Supreme Court handles a case of alleged sexual harassment made against one of its own, and also, at the same time, the highest authority in the court. But how has the court handled it and what next in this case? Tune in to this edition of The Big Story for more!
