#SupremeCourt to pronounce judgment in the plea moved by #scba to convert land allotted to the top court for construction of Advocates' chambers

#SupremeCourt

CJI reads the verdict.
CJI: The SCBA cannot claim the entire land for chamber block for lawyers. The #SupremeCourtOfIndia works on both the judicial and administrative side. Hence, this issue can be considered by the court on its administrative side.
CJI: The SCBA has also sought conversion of buildings surrounding the #SupremeCourt into a Supreme Court block. SCBA cannot assert a right on the entirety of the land allotted to the SC for housing SC archives.
CJI: The discharge of functions by #SupremeCourt deals with lawyers, litigants and a holistic view has to be taken into the allocation of resources, thus, the matter cannot be dealt with by applying judicial standards.
#SCBA
CJI: We leave it open to the #SupremeCourtOfIndia to take this up on the administrative side and have a discussion with SCBA, SCAORA and other bar members. Plea stands disposed off accordingly.
