'The Supreme Court is one', says CJI Dipak Misra

The Supreme Court is one, Chief Justice of India, Dipak Misra said amidst a raging crisis in the judiciary.

Speaking at a function to bid farewell to Justice RK Agrawal, the CJI said, "As has been told, the Supreme Court is one. The Bar fosters us, nurtures us and on every occasion, I have told the young members of the Bar, be the guiding angels."

"Whatever your status is, whatever your stature is; it is the duty of the judges to show respect to the members of the Bar despite their age or status. I personally and individually feel so and do so," he said at the function organised by the Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA).

Justice Misra praised Justice Agarwal and called him the pride of the Supreme Court.
