@NCIBHQ@varanasipolice@Uppolice If you are an NGO, why is your handle "NCIBHQ" giving an impression that you are a government agency like CBI, ED etc? Who are you fooling?
Lawyers Association For Constitution demands that the #SupremeCourt's orders referring the CEC Act challenge to the Constitution Bench, as well as giving interim relief to Noida DM Medha Roopam, be recalled in the light of reports that Justice Satish Chandra Sharma's son is a standing counsel for the Election Commission of India.
The Association demands that the matters be heard afresh by a bench in which Justice Sharma is not a member.
The Association also suggests a transparent protocol for disclosure by judges regarding any engagement of their close relatives by parties in the contest.
Lawyers Association For Constitution writes to Chief Justice of India Surya Kant raising concerns over the manner in which Noida DM Medha Roopam's petition was listed.
The Association alleges that her petition was "specially assigned to a particular bench" despite the prevailing roster.
Highlighting that Medha Roopam is the daughter of the Chief Election Commissioner, the Association says preferential treatment to a matter sets a wrong precedent.
"The special listing before a particular bench has not enhanced confidence in the judicial process," the letter says.
The Association also flags the muting of the live procedings.
The issue is regarding the petition filed by Medha Roopam challenging the Allahabad High Court's order criticising her for ordering the detention of a student under the National Security Act in connection with the Noida workers' protest, and asking her to pay Rs 5 lakh compensation.
If Gyanesh Kumar does not resign by tomorrow, CJP will begin its nationwide protest from Mumbai on 2 October, and take it to cities across India.
