  • Chief Justice of India Surya Kant refutes reports that he refused to list petition against police action on student protests.

    CJI says there was no petition filed in the #SupremeCourt, and a lawyer had mentioned only a letter representation. CJI says it was irresponsible and reckless reporting by the media.

    "In last two days, a completely false statement was made that a matter was filed, and the media is absolutely free from all responsibility, falsely reporting that Chief Justice refused to list the matter. Till morning 10 AM, not a single page has been filed. It was one representation..sent by that Mishra or someone. How can I treat the representation as a writ petition? And people start recklessly reporting this," CJI says.
