1. This Legally Wired section is about other media reports about legal stuff. Katju is a judge, and the media is reporting about him a LOT since he's stepped down.

2. We have some history with Katju - Court Witness was one of the first people (if not the first) to notice and profile Katju.
3. In today's Legally Wired, there's this Bloomberg article which might explain more:

4. (Look, the Indian Express also wrote about Katju's debut on TWitter)

In short, Justice Katju is clearly impossible to ignore these days, not just for a legal publication.
Best wishes
Kian
