Sir Alladi looked into the papers and after I explained the points, he asked me to write a note on the case and my own opinion I had no difficulty as his private library was better than most law libraries including the one of the Federal Court. I worked for three or four days and prepared a note for him and also stated my opinion in detail with reason. He kept it for two days to study it and after this he said to me something which I have always treasured in my memory. He said “If you can write like this why you have come to consult me?
