Sound support?

K V Chowdary, the newly appointed Central Vigilance Commissioner (CVC), only has great respect for senior lawyer Ram Jethmalani and former Aam Aadmi Party leader Prashant Bhushan, and considers Jethmalani "a father figure". One would remember that the appointment of Chowdary - a former chairman of the Central Board of Direct Taxes - as CVC didn't go down well with Jethmalani and Bhushan, who questioned his credentials. Jethmalani was so incensed with the appointment that he shot off a letter to the Prime Minister and posted it on Twitter, declaring that his "diminishing respect for you (PM) ends today". When asked about this opposition, Chowdary, the target of these barbs, refused to add fuel to the fire.
