Bar Council of India Condemns Allegations Against Justice DY Chandrachud
The Bar Council of India (BCI) has dismissed allegations against Supreme Court Justice DY Chandrachud as baseless and malicious. The accusations, made by lawyer RK Pathan, claimed that Justice Chandrachud passed orders to benefit his son’s client.
In a strong statement, the BCI labeled the allegations as a deliberate attempt to undermine the judiciary’s credibility and disrupt the administration of justice.
BCI’s Response
The council criticized individuals with vested interests for attempting to tarnish the reputation of the Supreme Court and its judges. It expressed concern over the increasing trend of false complaints aimed at damaging the judiciary’s image and called for immediate action to curb such activities.
Allegations and Timing
The BCI noted that the allegations seemed strategically timed to harm Justice Chandrachud’s reputation ahead of his elevation as Chief Justice of India. The council highlighted that RK Pathan, who made the complaint, provided no details about his identity, address, or the organization he represents.
Pathan’s History
The council pointed out that RK Pathan had previously been found guilty of contempt by the Supreme Court in April 2020 for filing false and baseless complaints against a retired Supreme Court judge. The current complaint was labeled as another malicious effort to malign the judiciary in the eyes of the public and the world.
Conclusion
The BCI emphasized that such actions were a direct attack on the judiciary and warned against attempts to spread fake and defamatory claims against judges. The council reiterated its commitment to safeguarding the integrity of the Indian judicial system.
