A tense moment unfolded in the Supreme Court on Monday when a lawyer attempted to attack Chief Justice of India (CJI) Bhushan R. Gavai during the mentioning of cases before his Bench.
According to sources, the lawyer went near the dais and tried to remove his shoe to throw it at the judge, shouting, “Sanatan ka apman nahi sahenge.” Security personnel immediately intervened, preventing the act and escorting the lawyer out of the courtroom.
Despite the commotion, CJI Gavai remained calm and composed, urging those present to proceed as usual. “Don’t get distracted by all this. We are not distracted. These things do not affect me,” he remarked, ensuring that the court’s proceedings continued smoothly without interruption.
