Supreme Court Permits SCBA Meeting on Election Reforms with Sealed Ballot Voting
The Supreme Court permitted the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) to hold its general body meeting on November 2 to discuss electoral reforms. The court directed that any voting must be conducted by secret ballot, with results submitted to the court in a sealed envelope and not publicly disclosed. Senior advocate Jaideep Gupta, heading the court-appointed reform committee, raised concerns about the meeting's convening, while SCBA president Pradeep Rai defended it as necessary to gather members' views before forming an opinion. The next hearing is scheduled for November 5.
