The Rajya Sabha paid tribute to former Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi, who retired after a six-year tenure. Vice President and Rajya Sabha Chairman CP Radhakrishnan commended Gogoi’s legal expertise and his significant contributions to parliamentary discussions, highlighting his profound understanding of the legislative process and public interest. Radhakrishnan expressed that Gogoi’s wise counsel and gravitas would be sorely missed in the House. He extended best wishes for Gogoi’s future endeavors, hoping he would continue to serve the nation with the same dedication and integrity as he had during his career. Gogoi was nominated to the Rajya Sabha on March 16, 2020, shortly after stepping down as CJI on November 17, 2019, a nomination that sparked debate regarding the relationship between the executive and judiciary.
