#SupremeCourt
Sr Adv @JethmalaniM speaking over the remarks made by Sibal said, "He must be speaking for small group expecting SC to give decisions as per them. I'm surprised that he made such remarks. Judgments can be criticised but institutions shouldn't be denigrated."
#KapilSibal
Sr Adv MK Mishra, Chairman, BCI said, "I don't think that anyone can a appreciate such statements. He was practicing law for a long time & court respected him, now at this stage when he has lost a few cases blaming entire judicial system isn't proper."

@AamAadmiParty moves an application for intervention in @AshwiniUpadhyay ’s PIL pertaining to the issue of irrational distribution of freebies from public funds before elections. AAP contends that the PIL is not non-partisan litigation.
#AAP alleges that @AshwiniUpadhyay has strong links to @BJP4India having served as its spokesperson and as a leader of its Delhi unit in the past. AAP alleges that Upadhyay’s ‘frivolous’ pleas are often inspired by ‘party agenda’ and have been criticised by court in past.
#AAP alleges that @AshwiniUpadhyay is attempting to use PIL at furthering a particular political agenda. It says Upadhyay’s lack of bonafide is compounded as he does not disclose his ties with a particular ruling party & introduces himself as social political activist.
