CJI Warns of Intervention if Supreme Court Metro Station Remains Closed Amid Protests
Chief Justice of India Surya Kant warned he would intervene if the Supreme Court Metro station in Delhi is not reopened by lunchtime amid closures of 16 metro stations due to ongoing student protests. The Supreme Court Bar Association president Vikas Singh highlighted difficulties faced by lawyers and court staff reaching the court. The CJI directed that no adverse orders be passed solely due to non-appearance caused by the closures and urged the court administration to coordinate with Delhi Metro authorities to allow restricted access for those with valid Supreme Court identification.
