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 hears the Kerala Wakf Board's plea challenging the Kerala HC's recent order restraining it from taking major policy decisions over absence of 2 non-Muslim members

Bench: CJI Surya Kant, J Joymalya Bagchi and J Vipul M Pancholi

Sr Adv K Parmeswar (for respondents): State appeared and conceded...

J Bagchi: Whatever may be, we will call upon the state to report on compliance

Sr Adv Jaideep Gupta (for State): Order says it's posted for tomorrow. This is an interim order. There is no reason why your lordships should interfere at this stage

J Bagchi: Why should the Board for this reason stand handicapped by this restriction?

Parmeswar: Jt. Secy is part of the statutory Board!

Sr Adv Huzefa Ahmadi (for Waqf Board) - State is supporting the petitioner.Image
Gupta: In one case, issue is of absence of 2 Non-Muslims...in another, ratio of Shia Muslims has to be determined

Another Sr Adv (for Board): ad-interim order passed in a PIL! Behind the back of the Board

CJI: We are only concerned with para 6 (restraining policy decisions without leave of Court)

Ahmadi: Notification (14.02.2026) originally appointed 9 members. They have term of 5 years. What they want to do is - they want to substitute them with their own people. That's the game. PIL filed by someone who belongs to a political party.

#SupremeCourt #KeralaWaqfBoard
Ahmadi: Where was the question of saying that Board can't function? And natural justice? I appear before court and say give me time...members of Waqf Board are not served with copy...extraordinary order passed. S. 14 does not say that if there is any vacancy, then Board becomes defunct

A counsel: The impugned order is in 4 petitions. One was for reconstitution of Board

Ahmadi: The only ground raised in HC order is non-appointment of Non-Muslim members

J Bagchi: This is an ad-interim order. Question of your prejudice can be taken care of by seeking modification of that order. And we can give that liberty. The extent to which it becomes egregious interference in day-to-day functioning...we will set aside last line.

#BREAKING TMC MP Mahua Moitra moves Calcutta High Court against a compliant filed against her.

Counsel: She was attacked by a mob, eggs were pelted at her. She merely asked the egg pelters to face her directly and not hide in the crowd. Complaint was registered saying she insulted Hindu girls by religion. @MahuaMoitraImage
Counsel: No offence has been disclosed
Counsel: the word “Hindu” was never uttered by the petitioner. What is bizarre is the repetitive issuance of 35(3) notices. She is attending the monsoon session of parliament. My prayer is to get no coercive steps and so that I can appear before them in virtual mode. I am ready to cooperate

#SupremeCourt hears the SCBA v. BD Kaushik matter pertaining to electoral reforms in SCBA

Bench: CJI Surya Kant, J Joymalya Bagchi and J V Mohana

Sr Adv Vikas Singh: We have nominated Election Committee...Mr. Jaideep Gupta is the Chairman

A sr counsel: Mr. Vikas Singh did not inform this court earlier that voter list had been finalized. Every time attempt is to extent tenure

Adv Nedumpara: These are affairs of a society. Being hijacked by petitions...where is the jurisdiction of this court?Image
A counsel: Your lordships have put some conditions. A misc. application has been filed...50 appearances should be reduced to 25

Nedumpara: Every member should be allowed to vote

A sr counsel: idea was to weed out people who don't regularly practice here...this is a 3rd bite at the cherry...all these points were argued

CJI: Seems nobody is opposing the reforms. One idea appears to be reforms should be implemented from this year only

Nedumpara: Every member should be able to vote and contest.
CJI: Reforms have 2 parts - one pertains to right to vote. The other is right to contest. Majority's suggestion is right to vote should be deferred to next year?

Vikas Singh: Let it be 60 proximity card entries and 20 appearances

CJI: Can we constitute the Election Committee?

Vikas Singh: The EC has already taken charge.

A counsel: Members who were there in last 10 elections should not be Election Commissioner

Sr Adv Jaideep Gupta (EC Chairman) joins proceedings.

(Clarification: Matter being heard by a bench of CJI Kant and J KV Viswanathan.)
