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 to continue hearing the bail petitions of #UmarKhalid, Sharjeel Imam, Gulfisha Fatima, Meeran Haider, etc in the larger conspiracy case.

Bench: Justices Aravind Kumar and NV Anjaria

Delhi police will conclude the rebuttal today. Image
Follow this thread for yesterday's proceedings:
ASG SV Raju: mylords wanted me to give a written note. One judgment I would like to show a 2013 judgment. It was argued that there was nothing in Sharjeel Imam speech.

Reads a document- theory of agency applies in a conspiracy. Also refers to the Rajiv Gandhi assassination judgment.

Here prima facie is accepted because cognisance was taken for 120B IPC. Therefore, Sharjeel Imam's case will be considered as evidence against others.

On rejoinder-on delay not attributable to them- prosecution is ready to argue however objected by the accused persons.

Gone are the days when news channels and newspapers properly report facts, it is very unfortunate - #SupremeCourt remarks while hearing writ petition alleging that Andhra Star Authorities blocked Sakshi TV channel.

Bench: Justice PS Narasimha and Justice Atul Chandurkar. Image
J Narasimha was responding to Sakshi TV's counsel's submission that certain channels are perceived to be favourable to one government or the other.

J Narasimha: nobody reports facts. So what gets reported is a slanted fact.
J Narasimha: Now people have acquired the ability of reading and understanding between the lines of a newspaper. You pick up one newspaper you will get one perspective, other newspaper you will get another perspective. We have completely sacrificed the objective fact.
