Apex Court to hear sack plea against CJI
The Supreme Court has formed a Constitution Bench to hear the petition filed by two Congress MPs seeking initiation of impeachment proceedings against Chief Justice Dipak Misra.
New Delhi: The Supreme Court has formed a Constitution Bench to hear the petition filed by two Congress MPs seeking initiation of impeachment proceedings against Chief Justice Dipak Misra.
The list of business for the Supreme Court showed that the petition would be heard at 10.30 am on Tuesday by a five-judge bench comprising Justices A K Sikri, S A Bobde, N V Ramana, Arun Mishra and A K Goel.
This sudden development comes after the matter was mentioned on Monday before Justice Jasti Chelameswar. The petitioners had not mentioned the matter before the CJI since the case is against him.
Justice Chelameswar had said he would take a call on Tuesday on whether he should decide about listing of the petition but a bench to hear the case has been formed before he could make a decision.
It may be recalled that on 23rd April, M Venkaiah Naidu, the Vice-President of India and Chairman of Rajya Sabha, refused to allow the impeachment motion as the sought action was “neither legal nor desirable or proper.”
