Expose to reveal housing scam in Orissa High Court

Last updated on: November 02, 2011 19:59 IST

A major expose by Cobra Post and CNN IBN on how the judges of the Orissa High Court got houses under the discretionary quotas available with the ministers, is set to be released around 8 pm on Wednesday.

The names of the judges and the manner in which this racket worked will be part of this expose.

The expose gains importance, as the judiciary across the country has been playing a significant role in battling corruption.

More importantly, the Supreme Court and several high courts in the country have taken the lead role in sending big politicians behind bars on corruption charges.

Members of the judiciary will keenly watch the expose, as the institution is likely to come under scrutiny after this. Will the judiciary act against its own men is something that we would know once the programme is aired.
