ASG: Aggrieved by the reasoning of the learned judge. Raju refers to the relevant paras of CBI Court order.

@Aakar__Patel #CBI #fcra
ASG: We have no grievance against this — on the setting aside of the LOC against Patel.

ASG: We believe that this reasoning will be quoted and applied in all other cases.

@Aakar__Patel #CBI #fcra
Advocate Tanveer Ahmed Mir appears for Patel.
Mir: It can't be quoted anywhere because CBI Court is not court of record. What is the apprehension.

@Aakar__Patel #CBI #fcra
Court: Let me issue notice.

Mir opposes.

Court: Sometimes people don't realise that an order can be passed in a jiffy.

@Aakar__Patel #CBI #fcra
Mir opposes.

Court fixes hearing at the end of the board.

ASG: I have matters in SC.

ASG: I am opposing the order in his favour.

Justice Ravindra Bhat: there needs to be a greater analysis of pendency

Luthra: only 15% of last year’s pendency has been disposed and then less cases are being disposed every year #NIAct
