Supreme Court resumes hearing its suo motu case on stray dogs.

Bench: Justices Vikram Nath, Sandeep Mehta, and NV Anjaria Image
Amicus Gaurav Agarwal: the 4 remaining states mentioned yesterday have filed their compliances last night. So between yesterday's note and today's note, sixteen states are done, seven are left. I would need one more day to complete that tabular chart.
Sr. Adv CU Singh resumes his arguments.

Singh: apart from the vacuum effect etc mentioned yesterday, there is also a rodent menace. There’s also a problem of monkeys in institutional areas. We have annexed studies. When there is an abrupt removal of dogs, rodent populations shoot up and lead to unintended consequences. There has to be a balance. Your lordships know what happened in Surat 20-30 years ago.

Court: did that have anything to do with removal of dogs? On a lighter note, dogs and cats are enemies. Cats kill rodents so we should promote more cats and less dogs. That would be the solution. Tell us how many dogs you want roaming around in hospital corridors?

Supreme Court hears the Delhi Air pollution case

CJI Surya Kant: the amicus has filed a report which has some long term solutions

ASG Aishwarya Bhati: Let us go issue wise..

CJI: Yes we don't want to be super experts but a forum where expert opinions can be placed so that best practice can be adopted.Image
CJI: It is being said that heavy vehicles are contributing to it and then there is construction in NCR area..people need housing. So we have to see if construction is contributing it. If CAQM wants to come now after 2 months is not possible. That is like it's failing in its duty.
CJI: As I am speaking... vehicular pollution is now contributing to 40 percent.

Amicus: 2022 report of CAQM had conducted an exercise... But the plan is not in public domain

Supreme Court hears plea by Telangana government seeking directions to halt the expansion works allegedly being undertaken by the Andhra Pradesh government to link the Polavaram project to Banakacherla or Nallamala Sagar without the required statutory approvals

Sr Adv AM Singhvi argues

#SupremeCourtImage
Sr Adv Singhvi: Addition of lift component near barrages was also not discarded. CWC just last month directed that no in principle consent should be given. The committee cannot be rendered infructuous before it is made.
CJI Kant: We are seeing whether there is a violation or attempt to violate the award by AP govt. Polavaram project is a central govt project and you are correct that nothing can be added or diverted without permission of centre.. so you can write to the committee

Sr Adv Mukul Rohatgi for AP govt intervenes

Supreme Court hears plea seeking reservation for specially abled lawyers in the Bar Council of India

Bench: CJI Surya Kant and Justice Joymalya Bagchi Image
Sr. Adv. Manan Mishra (BCI Chairman): there is no scope for their adjustment in the main council. But we can make adjustments in committees.

CJI: ensure there is adequate representation.
Sr. Adv. Indira Jaising: they shouldn’t be asked to pay the fee for nomination form while contesting elections.

CJI: Mr Mishra, for specially abled persons you only charge a nominal fee when they contest elections. It can be a symbolic amount. Instead of 1.25 lakhs it could be 25000.

Jaising: 25000 may also be a little high.
