It’s been a long journey for Devadatt Kamat, who finds himself in the eye of the storm, from the coastal town of Karwar in Uttar Kannada district of Karnataka. Kamat nonchalantly tweeted, “Happy to have provided employment to hundreds of trolls of the King in the last couple of days. I fortunately live in a free country. As a counsel, I appear and argue any case I am instructed in. No third party much less a political party can question my choice of a brief!’’ His father S.P. Kamat, who is a senior advocate in Karar, told National Herald that the family had close ties with the Ashram. “The Ashram is next door to my house,” he informed. Family friends of the Kamats recalled that Devadatt Kamat would visit the ashram to learn Vedic scriptures in his childhood. He used to spend most of his time there as the ashram was next to his house,’’ they stated. The 43-year-old senior advocate was among the 37 lawyers designated as Senior Advocate by the Supreme Court in 2019 and served as Additional AdvocateGeneral of Karnataka from 2015 to 2019. Ironically, he has also represented self-styled godman Asaram Bapu, who was convicted in the rape case of a minor. When he took up Asaram Bapu’s case, the Hindu Yuva Vahini had congratulated him. To this Kamat’s reply was, “Now what is this? From being called anti-Hindu one day to a Hindutva warrior, the next. A Counsel’s journey is just fascinating!’’(This article was first published in National Herald on Sunday)
