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.
