Amaravati Land Scam Case: Andhra Govt's Plea Against HC Order Staying SIT Probe- Live Updates From Supreme Court

Salve : Dr.Dhavan has coined the phrase "regime revenge". That applies in the case. The petitioner has appeared against the present Chief Minister as Advocate General. The list of cases are mentioned in the petition.   

Salve : The Govt is using its sympathisers to intimidate the judges through social media. The HC has ordered inquiry with respect to that.

Salve : This is a 15 September order. 2 and half months have passed. Let the High Court hear it. The HC knows the local situations better.

Salve : They are getting surrogates to file applications in HC against the stay order. A lady lawyer has filed an application against the Sep 15 order. Please see what are they up to.

Salve : The SLP is a a vote of no confidence against the HC. If the order was so wrong they should urge the HC to vacate the order. The CM is now making allegations against Chief Justice.

Rohatgi : It is absurd to say that there was secret knowledge of capital. How can the shifting of capital be secret?. For example, when an airport is proposed at a place, people know about it.

Rohatgi : The details of the FIR won't be there in the writ petition because the FIR was registered on the same day when the writ petition was being considered.

Rohatgi : The entire petition reeks of malafides. I requested the Chief Justice to hear the petition on the same day. It is easy to mar someone's reputation than build one. If lawyers are to be targeted for being Advocate General is not done.

Rohatgi : It is absurd to say that there was prior knowledge of the capital city. 

Rohatgi : The Govt leaked out the FIR to the media. There was attempt to malign the reputation of my client, an advocate with a standing of over 30 years.
