Chief Justice BR Gavai on Wednesday said it may not be proper for him to take up Justice Yashwant Varma’s plea challenging the in-house panel’s findings in the cash-at-residence case.
The top court added that it will constitute a bench to hear Justice Varma’s plea. The matter was mentioned today before the bench of CJI BR Gavai, Justices K Vinod Chandran and Joymalya Bagchi.
Senior advocates, including Kapil Sibal, Mukul Rohatgi, Rakesh Dwivedi, Sidharth Luthra and Siddharth Aggarwal, appeared for Justice Verma and submitted that they have filed the petition on behalf of the Allahabad High Court Judge.
“Some constitutional issues are there. I request you to constitute a bench as soon as possible,” the advocates mentioned.
Responding to the request, CJI said that it may not be proper for him to take up that matter.”We will just take a call and constitute a bench,” he then told the counsel.
