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.

#SupremeCourt holds that Section 60(4) of Code on Social Security, 2020 depriving maternity benefits to mothers who adopted of children aged than 3 months is violative of Article 14 and 21 of the Constitution. Image
The Court read down the provision to mean that any woman who legally adopts a child shall be entitled to maternity benefit for a period of 12 weeks from the date the child is handed over to her.
The Court also urged the Union of India to come out with the provision recognising paternity leave as a social security benefit, with duration of leave to be determined in a manner responsive to the needs of both the parent and the child.
