    The bench of CJI DY Chandrachud along with Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Misra had commenced the Court hearings for the day when a counsel mentioned a matter relating to the lapse of mining lease

    Taking note that the matter was mentioned before the bench yesterday as well, the CJI orally remarked on the need to discourage the practice of repeated mentionings of the same case to get a suitable order.
