CJI DY Chandrachud loses his calm at SCBA President Vikas Singh in the #SCBA land allotment matter.

Vikas Singh: I don't want to take this to the judges' resident.

CJI DY Chandrachud: Is it a way to behave? I will not be cowered down like this. Sit down.

#SupremeCourtOfIndia Image
CJI DY Chandrachud: Please don't raise your voice. This is not the way to behave as the President of SCBA. You're asking for a land allotted to the SC to be given to the bar. I have made my decision. It will be taken on 17th and it will not be first on board.

#SupremeCourt
Singh: Just because the bar doesn't do anything doesn't mean it should be taken for granted. I feel strongly for this. 20 years lawyers have been waiting to be allotted chambers.

#SupremeCourtOfIndia #SupremeCourt
CJI DY Chandrachud: Mr Singh, I am the Chief Justice of India. I have been on the bench for long. I have never let myself be brow beaten by bar members and I will not let it happen in the final 2 years of my life.

#SupremeCourtOfIndia #SupremeCourt
CJI DY Chandrachud: You will be treated as an ordinary litigant. Please don't force my hand to do something you don't want.

#Breaking: Bombay High Court comes down heavily on the Maharashtra Government for its failure to arrest the son of Cabinet Minister Bharat Gogawale, who is named as an accused in a rioting case related to civic polls in Pune.

Justice Madhav Jadmar: Is the Chief Minister of Maharashtra so helpless that he is unable to do anything in the case of the son of a Cabinet Minister ?

#MaharashtraGovernment #BombayHighCourtImage
J Jamdar: How can he continue to hold the post of a Cabinet Minister when his son is absconding? In fact, I have read in the media that the Minister is given the honour to foist the flag on Republic Day at Raigad... This is completely political... Is this the rule of law in Maharashtra ?

#BombayHighCourt #MaharashtraGovernment
During the hearing, the judge is informed that the Minister's son Vikas, who is absconding, has filed nominations (for the polls).

Irked over this, Justice Jamdar questioned Advocate General Milind Sathe as to how he could file nominations, when he is not "traceable" by the police.

Sathe: He is untraceable at the moment... Nomination may be filed through his propounder...
