In a major setback to Delhi's <keyword id="19935664" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Aam-Aadmi-Party" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Aam Aadmi Party" meta.hostid="345" meta.entityid="Aam Aadmi Party">Aam Aadmi Party</keyword> government, the <keyword id="19895345" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Supreme-Court" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Supreme Court" meta.hostid="345" meta.entityid="Supreme Court">Supreme Court</keyword> on Monday ruled that the law "expressly enables" the lieutenant governor to nominate <keyword id="22669982" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="aldermen" source="keywords">aldermen</keyword> to the <keyword id="19900879" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="mcd" source="keywords">MCD</keyword> and he is not bound by the advice of the council of ministers in the matter. A bench of Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices P S Narasimha and J B Pardiwala rejected the <keyword id="19925995" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Delhi-government" source="keywords">Delhi government</keyword>'s plea challenging the LG's power to nominate 10 aldermen in the <keyword id="19907640" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Municipal-Corporation-of-Delhi" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Municipal Corporation of Delhi" meta.hostid="345" meta.entityid="Municipal Corporation of Delhi">Municipal Corporation of Delhi</keyword> without the aid and advice of the council of ministers. The apex court pronounced its verdict on the Delhi government's plea after reserving it for nearly 15 months. In its ruling impacting the fraught relationship between the LG's office and the AAP-led Delhi government, the bench said the Delhi Municipal Corporation Act as amended in 1993 "expressly enables the LG to nominate persons having special knowledge to the corporation". It said the power expressed by the statute in the name of the LG, also seen in the context of other provisions, demonstrates the statutory scheme in which the powers and duties are distributed among authorities under the Act. "The context in which the power is located confirms that the LG is intended to act as per the mandate of the statute and not guided by the aid and advice of the council of ministers. The power to be exercised is the statutory duty of the LG and not the executive power of the state. This is how we analysed the constitutional provisions," Justice Narasimha said while pronouncing the verdict on behalf of the bench. The bench said the statutory power under provision 3(3)(b)(1) which deals with nomination of persons having special knowledge was vested with the LG for the first time by the 1993 amendment of the DMC Act of 1957. The bench said the DMC Act as amended in 1993 recognises five authorities exercising the state's power and duties under the Act -- these are the Central government, the government of NCT, administrator, corporation and the commissioner. It said the amendment Act of 1993 carries out several amendments to the original DMC Act of 1957 by which the power, duties were allocated to the authorities depending on the function they perform under the law. The bench said by way of the amendment the power of nomination of aldermen was given to LG under the provision just like the power of nomination of MLAs was given to the speaker of the House. On May 17 last year, the top court had said that giving the LG the power to nominate aldermen to the MCD will mean he can destabilise an elected civic body. The MCD has 250 elected and 10 nominated members. In December 2022, the Aam Aadmi Party defeated the <keyword id="19894848" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="BJP" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="BJP" meta.hostid="345" meta.entityid="BJP">BJP</keyword> in the civic elections, winning 134 wards and ending the saffron party's 15-year run at the helm of the MCD. The BJP won 104 seats and the Congress finished a distant third with nine. Senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi, appearing for the Delhi government, had contended during the hearing that no separate powers have been accorded to the state government to nominate people to the MCD. For the past 30 years, the practice of the LG nominating aldermen on the aid and advice of the city government has been followed, he said. Additional Solicitor General Sanjay Jain, appearing for the LG's office, submitted that just because a practice has been followed for 30 years does not mean it is correct. The top court had observed that giving the LG the power to nominate aldermen will effectively mean that he can destabilise a democratically elected MCD because these aldermen get appointed to the standing committees and have voting power. Earlier, the top court had questioned the "source of power" of the LG under the Constitution and the law to nominate aldermen to the MCD without the aid and advice of the elected government. On May 12 last year, the top court observed that LG has to act on the "aid and advice" of the council of ministers of the Delhi government in nominating 10 aldermen to the MCD.

In a keynote address at the Indo-Singapore Judicial Conference, <keyword id="19941896" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Chief-Justice-of-India" source="keywords">Chief Justice of India</keyword> DY Chandrachud emphasised the crucial role of <keyword id="19901571" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="technology" source="keywords">technology</keyword>, particularly Artificial Intelligence (AI), in reshaping <keyword id="21291398" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="legal-research" source="keywords">legal research</keyword> and the judiciary while stressing the imperative of <keyword id="20773416" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="ethical-considerations" source="keywords">ethical considerations</keyword> in its integration. Chandrachud commenced his address by lauding the conference's revolutionary focus on technology and its potential to catalyse crucial dialogues at the crossroads of technology and the judiciary. He acknowledged the profound impact of judicial dialogues in fostering cross-cultural exchange and mutual learning among diverse legal systems. Highlighting the deep-rooted ties between India and Singapore, Chandrachud commended both nations for their commitment to upholding the rule of law and promoting access to justice. "Judicial dialogues indeed play a vital role in fostering cross-cultural exchange and mutual learning among different legal systems. India and Singapore share not only deep social, cultural, and economic ties but also a commitment to upholding the rule of law and promoting access to justice. As two dynamic and rapidly evolving nations, both India and Singapore recognise the transformative potential of technology in modernising their respective judicial systems," said the CJI. He lauded Singapore's emergence as a global technology and innovation hub, citing its adoption of cutting-edge initiatives such as online dispute resolution platforms and electronic filing systems. "Singapore has positioned itself as a global hub for technology and innovation. With its strategic location, business-friendly environment, and robust legal framework, Singapore has attracted top talent and investment in the tech sector... Additionally, the Singapore International Commercial Court leverages technology to facilitate international dispute resolution, offering efficient and cost-effective solutions for resolving cross-border commercial disputes," he further said. The CJI praised India's strides in leveraging technology to modernise its judiciary, particularly through initiatives like the e-Courts project. "India boasts a vibrant tech ecosystem and a rich legal heritage. With a population of over a billion people and a rapidly growing economy, India presents enormous opportunities in adopting technology within the <keyword id="20199889" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="judicial-system" source="keywords">judicial system</keyword>. The e-Courts project, for instance, aims to computerise court processes, digitise case records, and establish online case management systems across all levels of the judiciary. By reducing administrative burdens and automating routine tasks, e- Courts enhance the speed and efficiency of legal proceedings, ultimately improving access to justice for all citizens," Chandrachud said. The Chief Justice then turned his attention to the transformative potential of AI in legal research, describing it as a "game-changer" that empowers legal professionals with unmatched efficiency and accuracy. He elucidated specific instances where AI, notably ChatGPT, had been utilised in court adjudication, citing examples from Colombia and India. "Additionally, the Supreme Court of India introduced live transcription services, an initiative aimed at enhancing accessibility to legal information. This initiative has been particularly impactful in addressing linguistic diversity, as live transcription services translate judicial proceedings into 18 regional languages and Hindi, ensuring that legal information is accessible to citizens across India using AI termed as the Supreme Court Vidhik Anuvaad Software. This not only saves time and resources but also improves access to justice by reducing delays and backlogs in the court system," he said, "In 2023, Justice Juan Manuel Padilla, a Colombian judge, utilised the ChatGPT to deliver a judgment in a case involving insurance claims for an autistic child," Chandrachud elaborated, underscoring the complementary role of AI in augmenting judicial reasoning rather than supplanting it. Similarly, he recounted how the Punjab and Haryana High Court in India sought insights from ChatGPT in a bail petition. However, Chandrachud cautioned against overlooking the ethical, legal, and practical considerations associated with <keyword id="20230984" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="AI-integration" source="keywords">AI integration</keyword> into court proceedings. "These instances show that we cannot avoid the question of using AI in court adjudication. The integration of AI in modern processes including court proceedings raises complex ethical, legal, and practical considerations that demand a thorough examination. The use of AI in court adjudication presents both opportunities and challenges that warrant nuanced deliberation," he asserted. He noted the importance of transparency, accountability, and fairness in AI utilisation, highlighting concerns about potential errors and biases inherent in AI systems. "The full realisation of AI's potential hinges on global collaboration and cooperation," Chandrachud said, urging stakeholders to prioritise robust auditing mechanisms and capacity building. In his concluding remarks, the CJI noted that the advancement of technology and AI is inevitable. "It holds the potential to significantly change professions and make service delivery more accessible to people. In the field of law, this translates to the potential for AI to expedite and streamline justice delivery. The era of maintaining the status quo is behind us; it is time to embrace evolution within our profession and explore how we can harness the processing power of technology to its fullest within our institutions," he said. Aiming to explore the intersection of technology and the legal system, particularly focusing on the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in judiciary, the Supreme Court organised a two-day conference on Technology and Dialogue between the Supreme Courts of India and Singapore on Saturday and Sunday. Alongside judges, jurists, Chief Justice of Singapore Justice Sundaresh Menon also engaged in panel discussions covering a wide array of topics.

CJI DY Chandrachud advocates for ethical AI integration in legal research

Chief Justice of India (<keyword id="19946587" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="cji" source="keywords">CJI</keyword>) DY Chandrachud on Saturday observed that it is "grave danger" to describe the <keyword id="19900770" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="court" source="keywords">court</keyword> as a "<keyword id="22227364" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="temple-of-justice" source="keywords">temple of justice</keyword> and equate <keyword id="20008218" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="judges" source="keywords">judges</keyword> with Gods" as the task of judges is to serve the public interest. Addressing a conference on Contemporary Judicial Developments in <keyword id="22227366" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="kolkata-cji-chandrachud" source="keywords">Kolkata CJI Chandrachud</keyword> said that "<keyword id="22226984" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="constitutional-morality" source="keywords">constitutional morality</keyword>" reflects an institution's commitment of the Court system. "Too very often, when we are addressed as Honour or as Lordship or as Ladyship. There is a very grave danger when people say that the court is a temple of justice. There is a grave danger that we perceive ourselves as the deities in those temples," Chandrachud said. The CJI said that "he feels reticent when he is told that the court is the temple of justice because the temple postulates that the judges are in the position of a deity." "I would rather recast the role of the judge as a server of the people. And when you regard yourselves as people who are there to serve others, then you bring in the notion of compassion, of empathy, of judging but not being judgmental about others," the CJI said. He further emphasized on the word 'contemporary' and said that the word itself speaks about in the context of contemporary <keyword id="22227365" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="societal-challenges" source="keywords">societal challenges</keyword> which the judges face in the work they do. "This conference speaks on Contemporary Judicial Developments and strengthening justice through law and technology. The word 'contemporary' is very important because it does not speak about the work which we do in the abstract, but in the context of contemporary societal challenges which we as judges face in the work we do. We, therefore, look at the law and its intersection of technology from the perspective of the societal conditions in which those whom we serve exist in our societies because the true merit of our work lies in addressing challenges faced by those at whose feet we are intended to serve the common citizens of India," he said. He further said that the people exist in a federal structure that is marked by a great deal of <keyword id="20051946" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="diversity" source="keywords">diversity</keyword>. "I was born in Mumbai, belong to a small village located 60-70 kilometers away from Pune. The work as judges we do in Delhi is to realize the importance of preserving the diversity of India. So how do we then dwell on the constitutional of morality? At one level constitutional morality is founded in the permeable values. The values which the Constitution, Preamble sets out," he added. The CJI said that C onstitutional morality addresses itself in every component of society. "The Consitution is not merely a dialogue between the states and its citizens, or Union or the states, or States and States. It is a dialogue within and between the societies. The Consitution Morality itself addresses to every component of society," he said. He said that even while sentencing anyone in a criminal case, the judges do that with a sense of compassion, since at the end, a human being is being sentenced. "So these concepts of constitutional morality, which I think, are the key, not just for the judges of the <keyword id="19895345" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Supreme-Court" source="keywords" meta.keywordsubtype="org" meta.entityname="Supreme Court" meta.hostid="261" meta.entityid="Supreme Court">Supreme Court</keyword> or the High Court but also for the district judiciary itself, because the engagement of the common citizens begins first and foremost with the district judiciary," <keyword id="20026571" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="CJI-Chandrachud" source="keywords">CJI Chandrachud</keyword> said. He further stressed on the relevance of technology in the functioning of the judiciary and said that the language is the central barrier to accessing and understanding verdicts by common people. "Technology can provide us with some answers. Most judgments are written in English. Technology has enabled us to translate them. We are translating 51,000 judgments in other languages," CJI said.

"Grave danger": CJI Chandrachud on equating court with temple, judge with God

The <keyword id="6354977" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="supreme-court" source="Orion">Supreme Court</keyword> on Monday came down heavily on two members of <keyword id="6396355" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="nclat" source="Orion">NCLAT</keyword> who were issued contempt notice for defying an order of the apex court. After going through the relevant CCTV footage of the NCLAT proceedings from October 13, a bench headed by <keyword id="6363345" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="cji" source="Orion">CJI</keyword> D.Y. Chandrachud and comprising Justices J.B. Pardiwala and Manoj Misra said that there exists a "clear intention" to breach the directions passed by the Supreme Court. In view of the unconditional apology tendered by Member (Technical) Dr Alok Srivastava, the bench decided to put an end to contempt proceedings. During the hearing, the top court was apprised by senior advocate P.S. Patwalia that Member (Judicial) Rakesh Kumar -- who was part of the contentious bench of NCLAT -- has tendered his resignation to the Chairman of the appellate tribunal. Senior advocate Patwalia, who represented Member (Judicial) Rakesh Kumar, said that members of the bench had no intention to defy the orders passed by the apex court and there is no affront or ego involved. At this, CJI D.Y. Chandrachud said: "There is no denial of the fact that the lawyers did point out (before NCLAT bench) that an order was passed by the Supreme Court." In its order, the apex court directed <keyword id="227293" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="deepak-chhabria" source="Orion">Deepak Chhabria</keyword> and the scrutiniser to deposit costs of Rs 1 crore and Rs 10 lakh, respectively, in the Prime Minister Relief Fund for misusing the process of law. Earlier on October 18, the Supreme Court had issued contempt notice to two members for "wilfully" defying directions passed by it. The top court had also set aside the judgment passed by the two-member bench of the NCLAT saying that parties cannot take recourse to "devious" means to obviate compliance with the orders passed by the Supreme Court. On October 13, the top court ordered the Chairperson of the NCLAT to conduct an inquiry into the working of a bench of the appellate tribunal which allegedly defied an order of the Supreme Court. It had said that it is passing the order in "extraordinary circumstances" where the two-member bench of the NCLAT proceeded to pronounce the judgment despite the clear mandate of the order passed by the Supreme Court asking the appellate tribunal to declare "its judgment in the pending appeal after it is duly apprised of the fact that the result of the Annual General Meeting has been declared". Senior advocates <keyword id="106922" type="General" weightage="50" keywordseo="abhishek-manu-singhvi" source="Orion">Abhishek Manu Singhvi</keyword> and N.K. Kaul had apprised the top court that the bench consisting of Rakesh Kumar and Dr Alok Srivastava of the NCLAT proceeded to deliver the order despite request made by the petitioner before the appellate tribunal to not deliver the judgment until the report of the scrutiniser is made available. "If what is stated is correct, this will clearly constitute the defiance of the order of this court by the NCLAT," the Supreme Court had said, noting that its order was uploaded at 1.55 p.m. while the scrutiniser's report was stated to be uploaded at 2.40 p.m.

The <keyword id="6354977" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="supreme-court" source="Orion">Supreme Court</keyword> on Thursday declined to postpone the GATE-2022 exam saying that postponement will create "chaos and uncertainty" in the lives of students who have registered for it. A bench headed by <keyword id="3360108" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Justice-D-Y-Chandrachud" source="Orion">Justice D.Y. Chandrachud</keyword> and comprising <keyword id="12007072" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="justices-surya-kant" source="Orion">Justices Surya Kant</keyword> and <keyword id="177282" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="vikram-nath" source="Orion">Vikram Nath</keyword> said the court is not willing to entertain a petition 48 hours before the exam, as it will create chaos and uncertainty in the lives of the students who have already registered for the GATE-2022 exam. The bench was informed that over 9 lakh students are taking the GATE-2022 exam. The bench added that there is no overarching reason for it to exercise its jurisdiction under Article 32 of the Constitution, to supplant the duties and functions of the regulatory authorities who have taken a decision in connection with the schedule of the exam. The bench pointed out that now everything is opening up and it is not correct for courts to step into academic matters. The bench said: "We are not inclined to entertain a petition under Article 32...These petitions are accordingly dismissed." Advocate Satpal Singh, representing a petitioner, contended that many state governments have imposed a lockdown on weekends, and in this backdrop holding the exam is unfair and urged the court to defer the exam for a month. The bench told the petitioners counsel that some petitioners have moved before it and many others have already prepared for the exam. It pointed out that the exams were notified in August last year and 9 lakh are appearing for it, and 20,000 have signed an online petition. "Only authorities can look into this", said the bench. Justice Chandrachud queried the petitioners' counsel, "Look at the legitimacy of courts entering into these thickets. Just because some states have issues, how do we play with the careers of all students..." After a detailed hearing in the matter, the top court dismissed the pleas seeking postponement of the exam in the backdrop of third Covid wave.

Supreme Court junks plea to postpone GATE-2022 exam

The <keyword id="6354977" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="supreme-court" source="Orion">Supreme Court</keyword> on Friday cleared the decks for postgraduate medical counselling and admissions, including the Other Backward Classes (<keyword id="45661" type="General" weightage="80" keywordseo="obc" source="Orion">OBC</keyword>) and economically weaker sections (<keyword id="11939755" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="ews" source="Orion">EWS</keyword>) reservations for the current academic year, 2021-22. A bench headed by <keyword id="3360108" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Justice-D-Y-Chandrachud" source="Orion">Justice D.Y. Chandrachud</keyword> and A.S. Bopanna upheld the constitutional validity of 27 per cent reservation for OBC and 10 per cent EWS for the NEET-UG and NEET-PG. However, the top court added that it would decide on the rationale of criteria of Rs 8 lakh income for EWS category in March this year. On Thursday, after conducting a day-long hearing on petitions challenging the validity of EWS quota in postgraduate medical admissions and the Centre's argument favouring the quota, the court said there is a situation, where in national interest, the counselling has to begin, which was also a key demand of protesting resident doctors. A bench comprising Justices D.Y. Chandrachud and A.S. Bopanna said: "We are in a situation, where in the national interest the counselling has to begin." Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, representing the Centre, argued that all candidates eligible for the EWS quota, as per existing criteria, have got their certificates for registration and added that seats in all the government colleges have been increased to accommodate the EWS quota. "So, this will not harm the chances of general category students...", he added. Mehta also clarified that super-speciality courses have no reservation and none of the judgments remotely suggests that there cannot be reservation in PG courses. On the aspect of the EWS quota, he said there was a study, application of mind, and wide consultation when the government decided to fix the Rs 8 lakh income limit. The Centre has accepted the report of a three-member panel constituted to revisit the EWS criteria. The panel, in its report, said: "Firstly, the EWS's criteria relates to the financial year prior to the year of application whereas the income criterion for the creamy layer in OBC category is applicable to gross annual income for three consecutive years." The panel added: "Secondly, in case of deciding the OBC creamy layer, income from salaries, agriculture, and traditional artisanal professions are excluded from the consideration whereas the Rs 8 lakh criteria for EWS includes that from all sources, including farming. So, despite being the same cut-off number, their composition is different and hence, the two cannot be equated." After hearing the parties in the matter, the top court reserved its judgment on the petitions challenging the 27 per cent reservation for Other Backward Classes (OBC) and 10 per cent reservation for EWS in all-India quota seats for postgraduate medical courses. As many as 15 per cent seats in MBBS and 50 per cent seats in MS and MD courses are filled through all-India Quota from the candidates selected through the NEET.

The <keyword id="6354977" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Supreme-Court" source="Orion">Supreme Court</keyword> on Friday sought a response from the Centre on a plea seeking directions to not insist on the production of <keyword id="144117" type="General" weightage="100" keywordseo="aadhaar" source="Orion">Aadhaar</keyword> card as the only proof of identification for Covid-19 vaccination.

The petitioner <keyword id="12220645" type="General" weightage="20" keywordseo="Siddharthshankar-Sharma" source="Orion">Siddharthshankar Sharma</keyword> moved the top court through advocate Mayank Kshirsagar. The plea sought protection of right to vaccination granted to the citizens, which is dangerously endangered on account of denial of vaccination due to non-submission of Aadhaar details to the concerned authority despite possessing one of the seven prescribed photo-identification mentioned on the CoWIN app. The bench noted that Aadhaar card is not the only ID which is accepted by the concerned authorities. "You can also register with a drivers' license, PAN card, voter ID, passport, ration card, etc. You go and verify for yourself," the bench told the counsel. Kshirsagar submitted that one can register with any of the seven IDs, but when you visit a centre for vaccination, the authorities insist on Aadhaar. He added that everything on paper is there, but people are still facing this problem. After hearing arguments in the matter, the top court issued notice on the plea.
