CJI DY Chandrachud Orders Removal of Senior Advocate Mathews Nedumpara from Courtroom

Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud pulled up senior advocate Mathews Nedumpara after a heated exchange during a hearing on NEET-UG on Tuesday and ordered security personnel to remove him from the courtroom.

According to a video shared by Bar and Bench, the Chief Justice stepped in after Nedumpara, representing one of the petitioners, interrupted Narender Hooda, also appearing for a petitioner, as he was addressing the bench.

"I have something to say," said Nedumpara, cutting short Hooda's argument.

To this, Chief Justice Chandrachud asked him to speak after Hooda completed his argument.

In response to an inquiry from the bench, Nedumpara asserted that he is the most senior among all lawyers present before the court. "I can answer. I am the amicus."

The Chief Justice retorted, "I have not appointed any amicus."

The advocate persisted, "If you don't respect me, I will leave."

This was followed by a stern response from the Chief Justice. "Mr Nedumpara, I am cautioning you. You will not address the gallery. I am presiding over the court. Please summon security and have him escorted out of the courtroom," he said.

To this, the lawyer replied, "I am leaving. I am going." The Chief Justice reiterated, "You need not state that, you may leave. I have witnessed the judiciary for the past 24 years. I cannot allow lawyers to dictate proceedings in this court."
