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.

Advocate: mylords wanted to hear the victims.

CJI: we have received disturbing reports, some innocent childrens were killed. CRPF opened firing, the other side opened firing.

advocate: trial is in process, earlier it was not progressing because victims were forced to appear. there was also translation issue because of Kuki language. there was application which said that victims were not ready to go to Guwahti. on last occasion, because internet was down, they could not join. one witness has been examined, two are left. 6-7 months, we would conclude trial
CJI: that may not be good ground to cancel bail

Advocate: there is no allegation as of now

J Bagchi: bail was granted because of lapse of CBI

Advocate for CBI: it may not be correct, sanction required some time.
