Advocate ML Sharma: I have come to know there are other grounds of constitutional violations now

CJI: We have read your petition
Attorney General KK Venugopal: We don't have the copy of his plea

CJI: Mr Sharma always files startling petitions and now he has challenged the constitutional amendment of 1954 and committed illegality since 1954

AG Venugopal: That is true (smiles)
CJI: there is no improvement on the ground too (regarding farmers protests).

SG Mehta: we are having a healthy discussion. By Friday, please don't list all these matters together.
CJI: our intention was to encourage the talks.

Supreme Court adjourns the matter to Monday (January 11)
AG Venugopal: It has been held that a constitutional amendment ratified by states cannot be challenged on the basis of violating basic structure.

Supreme Court issues notice in the petition filed by Advocate ML Sharma.
