Don’t come close to dias: SC Bench to scribes

The scramble of journalists to get closer to the dais of judges inside the courtroom to take down their remarks on Tuesday irked a Supreme Court bench which asked them to remain at the place earmarked for them. 

"Don't rush to the Well," Justice Ranjan Gogoi, heading the bench that disposed of a contempt plea against the Centre on the issue of quota for persons with disabilities, said.

The bench then said the issue has been discussed and decided by a committee of judges and observed: "<g data-gr-id="11">May be</g>, that decision has not reached you. You should be at your place." The bench comprised Justice N V Ramana.
