'Bar Not Consulted' : SCAORA Requests CJI Sanjiv Khanna To Remove Glass Corridors, Relocate National Judicial Museum

Live Law  

The Supreme Court Advocates-on-Record Association on December 2, wrote to the Chief Justice of India, Justice Sanjiv Khanna requesting for the removal of the glass panel corridors and relocation of the National Judicial Museum and Archive to a lower security zone area. The SCAORA also expressed that the coming of the new glass corridors has take away the historical and aesthetic charm of the Main Supreme Court Building. The Association also reiterated its previous concerns over the need to relocate the National Judicial Museum and Archive to a lower security zone and utilise the space for creating better amenities for the members of the bar instead. SCAORA further explained why the presence of the Museum at a High Security Zone in the Supreme Court Premises proses a major security threat: "On the one hand, the court only allows one client per matter and restricts entry of additional clients; on the other hand, visitors who have no role to play in the dispensation of justice are allowed to enter the high- security area.
