Proud of Constitution, look at neighbours: Chief Justice Gavai cites Nepal violence

“We are proud of our Constitution. Look what is happening in neighboring States, like what happened in Nepal yesterday…” Chief Justice of India B R Gavai said. “And Bangladesh,” Justice Vikram Nath added, as per an India Today report.

The bench of Chief Justice of India BR Gavai and Justices Surya Kant, Vikram Nath, PS Narasimha and Atul S Chandurkar, was hearing a presidential reference case.

The reference was made by President Droupadi Murmu on May 13 to the apex court under Article 143 of the Constitution, seeking clarifications on the SC's April ruling on deadlines for Governors to act on the Bills passed by state legislatures.
