@mashrujeet @MNCDFbombay @RoadsOfMumbai @mumbaimatterz He meant they would have been following up for 10yrs hadn’t the structure fallen. Following up for 2 years! Aren’t people ashamed of saying that? Follow up once or twice they don’t listen then raze the structure. What’s this about waiting 2 years? There is no seriousness.

@LawTodayLive Hats off to CJI & the bench for maintaining the dignity of how a discussion should happen in SC & not deteriorate into a Fish Market negotiation. These advocates should not overstep the opportunity being given & be more dignified. It seemed like an intent to disrupt the SC flow.

@Cow__Momma How is this man concluding that the purpose of this is just for a voter to decide which party to vote for? (1:49) Is that all he can think about? This is also about possible corruption & criminal acts being done- has that possibility not crossed the honourable advocate’s mind?
