Justice AM Khanwilkar led bench to hear a plea by Kisan Mahapanchayat seeking permission to stage Satyagraha at Jantar Mantar #supremecourt
Through their petition, the farmers are seeking the issuance of directions to the authorities saying they should also be allowed to stage a protest at Jantar Mantar as permitted to Samyukta Kisan Morcha (SKM).
Advocate Ajay Choudhary says we have been asking permission for Delhi Police.
Once you have approached courts challenging the laws, what is the point of continuing the protests.
If you have faith in courts, pursue that for urgent hearing instead of protesting
You have strangulated the city and now you want to come inside the city and protest.
This coaxing should stop. You have blocked highways and roads: Supreme Court.
There is no purpose of protests if you come to courts: SC
We have not blocked the highways. Police has: Petitioner counsel.
Petitioner says it is not part of protests blocking highways.
Court asks petitioner to file affidavit to that effect. Posts case for hearing next week. Advance copy of petition to be served on Attorney General.
Justice DY Chandrachud speaks on "Rendering Pro-bono Services with Legal Services Authority," at the launch of the Pan India Legal Awareness and Outreach Campaign by the National Legal Services Authority (NALSA).
Justice Chandrachud: The launch of a pan India legal awareness campaign by NALSA is an important milestone to reflect on the progress we have made as a country to ensure the fulfilment of a key promise of the Constitution to its citizens and a fundamental guarantee u/ Art 21.
Justice Chandrachud: We have come a long way as a nation since the right to free legal aid was incorporated under Article 39A of the Constitution. In a sense it was a leveller to secure justice to the common person living in an underprivileged strata of society

An exasperated judge to lawyer : There's so much disturbance. Mute your mic.
I'll take care of your arguments. Just gesture with your hands if you agree or not.
And buy a better mic, I can't go on like this. #keralahighcourt #virtualcourt #courtroomexchange
At the same court, only moments ago.
Lawyer : Lordship, your audio keeps cutting off, can't hear for long periods of time.
The same exasperated Judge : there's nothing I can do about that. We just have to live with this. #keralahighcourt#virtualcourt #courtroomexchange
Same court, few minutes later
Lawyer : I was muted,I tried,mic was disabled
Judge : We are not doing anything here
Lawyer : It said mic disabled by host
Increasingly exasperated Judge : there's no host or hostess here doing anything. I am the only hostess here #keralahighcourt
#SupremeCourt hears a plea by Society of Indian Academy of Medical Genetics challenging eligibility criteria to the course of Doctorate of Medicine Medical Genetics since it allows postgraduates from every medical discipline to apply for the DM course
Adv Sudhanshu Choudhari: As per the NMC guidelines, there are only 3 courses wherein the students from medical genetics can apply. Now they've allowed it for everybody. Someone who has nothing to do with this course.
Choudhari: Say someone who has done PG in anotomy or biology will not be able to treat the patients. Guidelines prescribed by NMC which only entitles the applicants from three clinical disciplines viz Medicine, Pediatrics and Obstetrics-Gynecology to apply
CJ Patel: I am issuing notice today. I want suggestions from all respondents in short bullet points. For checking at courts, everybody is in a hurry, so how do we work around that?
