Justice JS Khehar is Uttarakhands new CJ

Former acting Chief Justice of the Punjab and Haryana High Court, Justice Jagdish Singh Khehar, took oath yesterday as the new Uttarakhand Chief Justice, after Justice V.K. Gupta retired in September this year.

Born on August 28, 1952, Justice Khehar graduated in science from Government College, Chandigarh in 1974 and pursued law in Punjab University, later also obtaining an LLM qualification.

Designated as a Senior Counsel in 1995, he was appointed as a judge of the Punjab and Haryana High Court at Chandigarh in 1999. He delivered several significant judgments, most notably the recent full bench decision on the importance of unshorn hair for the Sikhs. The judgment, delivered in May 2009, upheld the hardline stand taken by the Shiromani Gurudwara Prabandhak Committee barring a young Sikh girl's admission to a minority institution on the grounds that she had violated fundamental tenets of Sikhism by plucking her eyebrows.

Dear Sir,I am Prakash, residing at Bangalore and seek your help.I was married to Ms Mohan Kumari aged 30 years who is the daughter of Late Muddappa and sister of the current Asst Commisioner-Revenu ( Gangadhara Swamy GM )of Bangalore North. My wife Mohan Kumari did not leave with me even for 4 months, she wanted me to live with her separately and keep my parents away.I am the only son for my Parents and living with them today, they have no other options or place to live without me. It is my moral responsibility to take care of them, but my wife and their family, along with her brothers father in Law who is the honorable Judge in the High court of Karnataka ( Subhash B Adi ) and his wife have personally suggested me several times to leave my parents and take up a house to live with my wife separately as she cannot live in a family.When we met honorable judge Subhash Adi who is a father in law of Asst Commissioner in the high court and at his residenc he also suggested me to stay away from parents for some year, I have requested them not to push me to such a difficult situation and try and leave together as a family. But my wife and all her family members have threatened me and also filed a case against me, mentioning that I have harassed her for Dowry under section 498A, which is also filed after nearly 2 years when she had left my house and was not leaving with me. The date mentioned is also the day when I was working in my office. The case is in the court now.My father and Mother have really gone into depression due to all these issues and are under medical treatment. my father is suffering from disease dementia.I have ruined my life now. I have enough evidence recorded conversations and messages which can be produced in the court to gain justice, but the system is scared of these high profile men.I seek your guidance, to find a way to gain justice without these interruptions. I have been without a job because of these issues. I have been approached by the Media to share all the evidences and documents to help me gain justice. I do not want to opt for this option at this stage. I am seeking your advice to find a solution to approach the law to help me get justice.In anticipation of your help and advice to a person who is been suffering with these high profile men.Regards,Prakash.R
