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 chides Income Tax department for filing frivolous case which is covered by an earlier judgement of the Court.

Court: Such cases lead to docket explosion and wastage of judicial time.

Bench: Justice BV Nagarathna and Justice R Mahadevan. Image
The Court had last year dismissed an SLP against the same order of the Karnataka High Court that was challenged in the present case.

livelaw.in/top-stories/su…
J Nagarathna: Despite that order why this SLP is filed?

Counsel: we advised them not to file but they said that review against that judgement is pending. We advised them correctly.

J Nagarathna: We will say something in the order, send a message.
