So much vitriol against one of India's most eminent counsels simply because he is pro-Modi. How come you all are silent about controversies involving AMS, Sibal, Nalini + P Chidambaram and Pinaki Mishra? The left-wing mentality of LI's readers blind them to facts and objectivity.
He himself took candidates for internships either through source/contact or from specific institutes and giving lectures on Nepotism........height of "HYPOCRISY"
Truth bombs? This guy has been reduced to the domestic help of Mukeshbhai and his children. Won't move an inch without making sure he is pleasing the BJP top brass. Starts a scholarship at Oxford (where he didn't even study), joined a UK firm and does pure Indian arbitration sitting in London but is busy giving us advice about India being run by Indians?
Nehru, Shastri, Indira, Morarji, Rajiv, VP Singh, PVN, Vajpayee and Manmohan were all foreigners?
Such absolute drivel. He is just forever indebted that ▮▮▮ famous India Gate ▮▮▮

"If you have commercial courts you must have judges who understand commerce. You cannot have judges who look blank when you talk about competition law or financial services."
"The Delhi High Court has some very good judges, but some very FEW very good judges."
"Whose Constitution is under threat? The Constitution of India or the Constitution of certain political parties?"
"India has transitioned from an English-speaking, public school culture to sons of the soil running the country....India has to be run by Indians. People respect us now because they see India being run by Indians."
"Show me one country in the world where judges appoint judges. Show me one authority, one sociological research which says that if judges don't appoint judges the independence of the judiciary is compromised."

Truth, my ass.
Commercial matters are not difficult to understand.
