Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud reprimanded senior advocate Mathews Nedumpara during a Supreme Court hearing on NEET-UG petitions on Tuesday. The Chief Justice intervened after Nedumpara interrupted the arguments of senior advocate Narender Hooda, representing a petitioner. “I have something to say,” said Nedumpara. Nedumpara’s attempt to speak during Hooda’s argument led to CJI Chandrachud ordering him to wait until Hooda finished. Nedumpara’s assertion of seniority and subsequent challenge to the Chief Justice prompted Chandrachud to warn of potential removal if he continued disrupting. Despite being told he could leave, Nedumpara insisted on his position and historical experience.
