Breaking- Harish Salve Seeks Recuses - COVID19 Supreme Court 's Suo Motu Proceedings : Live Updates

Justice L Nagesawara Rao : Even before the order was released, it was being criticized for something which was not there in there in the order. Is this the way Senior Advocates speak? Without seeing the order.

Solicitor General : I saw on digital media people literally abusing. This needs to be looked into. One counsel should not succumb to such tactics. Mr Salve should reconsider. Its a question of principle. 

Solicitor General : Someday somebody from judiciary has to take cognizance of this trend of electronic media.

Solicitor General : We are not in a position in the country to have a maligning competition in media and electronic media. 

CJI : We understand that you are pained. We were not happy to read what supposedly senior advocates said. But everyone has their own opinion.

Salve : Today we have lost that narrative when cases used to be fought gracefully.

Salve : I did not know our bar was divided between advocates who appear for industries and against it.

I don't want aspersions to be cast.

Salve : I don't want the case to be heard under a shadow that I was appointed because of my school friendship with the CJI.

Senior Advocate Harish Salve seeks permission to recuse as amicus as from Suo mot covid case.
