Delhi High Court on Ashoka Hotel Rooms for Judges

Mr Mehra, we have taken suo motu cognizance.. we read in press today.. about this Ashoka Hotel

This is very misleading. High Court has not made any request in this regard: Court

#AshokaHotel #DelhiHighCourt @AamAadmiParty

We have not made any such request that you set it up at this hotel or that hotel. Purpose of the meeting was that the judiciary specially subordinate courts.. we've already lost to two judicial officers: Court

#AshokaHotel #DelhiHighCourt @AamAadmiParty

All that we wanted was in case they need hospitalisation, that facility should be given.

It has translated into this order : Court

#AshokaHotel #DelhiHighCourt @AamAadmiParty

You are passing orders left right and centre without meaning to do anything about it..

We have not even asked for it.

That hospital has no manpower, no equipment, no ventilator, no medicines: Court

What are you trying to convey: Court

#AshokaHotel #DelhiHighCourt

What is the protection? That ...it is to benefit ourselves or that you have done to appease us : Court

You say at request at the High Court .. our request is not that. Media is playing a mischievous role : Mehra

Your order says that : Court

#DelhiHighCourt #AshokaHotel

Can we as an institution say that you create a facility for us.. such and such beds for us. Would it not be patently discriminatory? : Court

Media's projections.. : Mehra

Media is not wrong..order is wrong : Delhi High Court

#DelhiHighCourt #AshokaHotel

It's unthinkable..we as an institution would take preference when people are dying on the road?: Delhi High Court
