CJI: we will reflect on this, and can decide on whether basha is correct or not without looking at the statute as a composite whole including today ....technically the SG said that 81 amendment is not on the statute list because it has been set aside by the Allahabad HC, but everything is live before our court. Now it may not be live before the 7 judges, its live before the Supreme Court. therefore in deciding whether Basha is right or wrong, Basha itself has interpreted the statute of 81 Act

CJI: can we while deciding upon the correctness of Basha say that we will look at only some of the statute but we will look at it minus the 81 amendment act. that is very artificial for us.
