CJI: If we do not act in matters of personal liberty and grant relief then what are we doing here? What is SC doing and is it not a breach under Article 136. #SupremeCourt exists to hear to the cry of such petitioners. We burn the midnight oil for such cases and see there is more Image
The above comment comes in the backdrop of a case where a person seeks bail. This person Iqram has served 7 years already and has another 10 years to go in a case where he had stolen electricity. There was plea bargaining too in the case. #SupremeCourt
CJI DY Chandrachud asks Senior Lawyer Nagamuthu to be present in the court for this case

CJI: This is why I asked you to stay back. Just imagine. As a former Madras HC judge you know that no case is too big or no case is too small for the Supreme Court. #SupremeCourt

Supreme Court observes that a when a particular property is targeted in a PIL, the High Court is often aware why the party has approached the court

CJI: Idea is to target one project and HC often knows why is it happening. You dont target the principle
#SupremeCourt Image
PILs could become an instrument of BLACKMAIL when it is an issue of an infrastructure project. This actually makes a plank to target such projects. High Court has actually smelled the rat here. This is happening across in Delhi, Mumbai, etc. Target fungible FSI and not this: CJI
What happens in such redevelopment projects is that only another competitor is behind such petitions and they join with other builders. I have sat across many such cases before the Bombay court: CJI DY Chandrachud #supremecourt
