In a strong attack on the functioning of the Supreme Court during the Coronavirus crisis, Justice A.P. Shah, a former Chief Justice of the Delhi and Madras High Courts and a former Chairman of the Law Commission, has said he is “thoroughly disappointed” with the top court. Differing with Chief Justice Bobde’s view that “this is not a situation where declaration of rights has much priority or as much importance as in other times”, Justice Shah said: “This is not correct…(the) Court’s duty is more onerous in times of crisis.” Justice Shah also questioned “why only a few judges are functioning and why aren’t all judges working from their homes?”
