A LETTER FROM GAUTAM NAVLAKHA: 14 April 2020
As I prepare to leave to surrender before the NIA headquarters in Delhi I am glad that Justice Arun Mishra and Justice Indira Banerjee gave me another week of freedom when they passed the order on April 8, 2020. A week of freedom means a lot in my condition, even in the age of lockdown.

गौतम नवलखा का पत्र: १४ अप्रैल २०२०
आज जब मैं दिल्ली में स्थित एनआइए हेडक्वॉर्टर में आत्मसमर्पण करने के लिए घर से निकलने की तैयारी में हूँ, मुझे ख़ुशी है कि जस्टिस अरुण मिश्रा और जस्टिस इंदिरा बैनर्जी ने मुझे 8 अप्रैल के अपने आदेश के द्वारा एक और हफ़्ते की आज़ादी दी। लॉकडाउन के दौर में मेरे जैसे हालात वाले किसी व्यक्ति के लिए एक हफ़्ते की आज़ादी के बहुत मायने है।
