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.

Singh, a member of the Press Club was "expelled" from the Club after he organised an event which was attended by Varavara Rao & Sudha Bharadwaj, both of whom are prime accused in the Bhima Koregaon - Elgar Parishad case.

Singh had moved a civil court seeking directions to the Press Club to allow him to participate in the elections to the Club which are scheduled to take place in July.

#BombayHighCourt
The Mumbai Press Club has challenged the ad-interim order directing it to permit Singh to participate in the elections.

Today, Singh, raised an objection to Justice Patil hearing the matter on the ground that the court will have to also consider the conditions of the bail granted to both Rao and Bharadwaj, majorly the one which barred them from interacting with each other.
