He appeared to be more angrier on the Governor than Uddhav Thackrey himself, for fall of #MVA govt.
To me, it appeared as if, his sympathy rests with Uddhav Thackrey.
Through this thread wherein, I will post screen shots of court's proceedings and analysis.

A division of Chief Justice Satish Chandra Sharma and Justice Subramonium Prasad says that while wishful thinking is not a prohibited activity, but when it forms part of the grounds of a petition before the court, it amounts to an abuse of the process of the court.
The PIL by one Sanjeev Kumar Tiwari, president of an organisation named Gram Uday Foundation had made several unsubstantiated allegations against Justice Chandrachud. The High had imposed a cost of Rs 1 lakh on the petitioner.

Senior Advocate Kapil Sibal: Complaint was made that there is a larger conspiracy and an SIT was set up. SIT was also to look into Zakia's complaint. Court then made an order that if someone needs to be prosecuted then you go to an appropriate court. ...(contd.)
Sibal: 26000 pages of docs were filed and then we filed out protest petition which was rejected in the high court. We came to Supreme Court & it was rejected (Sibal is referring to Zakia Jafri judgment by Supreme Court which was released recently)

Taking cue from an earlier speech on the need for Indianisation of the Indian Legal System as it suffers from colonially, CJI NV Ramana today said that our legal system fails to take into consideration the social realities and implications which are a harsh reality.
The Indian Judicial system is faced with twin challenges. Even after 74 years of independence, traditional and agrarian societies which have been following customary ways of life, still feel hesitant to approach the courts: #CJI NV Ramana
The practices, procedures, language and everything of our Courts feels alien to people of India. Between the complex language of the acts and the process of justice delivery, the common man seems to lose control over the fate of his grievance: #CJI
