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.
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.
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.

Matter taken up.
Counsel: stream is decided based on this exam. It is based on rank. Even a one mark difference will decide whether I get my preferred stream - radiology, gynecology etc. It will make a huge difference on whether I get the University of my choice.
J Vikram Nath: why do you hold this exam in two shifts?
Senior Advocate Maninder Acharya: the exam is held online. In 2024 NEET UG had to be cancelled due to malpractice. For online exam there are limited centres. All important examinations in which large number of candidates appear are held like this.

What is the purpose of an educational institution? Is it only to educate academically? You need to reform a student or make a student into a criminal? We understand you want to take some action but you cannot refrain her from taking exams. Let her appear for the remaining three papers.
Adv Kumud Lata Das: No.5 is Ashok Panigrahi...No.5 and 6 are reserved positions
