The Supreme Court today termed as very unfortunate the public statements, including those made by lawmakers, on impeachment of judges.
A bench comprising Justices A K Sikri and Ashok Bhushan said after the counsel appearing for the petitioner raised the issue of politicians making public statements on impeachment of judges.
The apex court has posted the matter for further hearing on 7th of May. However, during hearing today, no reference of CJI was made during brief arguments.
The apex court asked Attorney General K K Venugopal to assist it to deal with the plea, which has also sought a gag on the media from reporting such statements.
The development assumes significance as it comes on a day when the Congress and other opposition parties have decided to submit a notice to initiate impeachment proceedings against Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra.
