Former Chief Justice of India, B.R. Gavai, revealed he acted on instinct during a shoe-hurling attempt in the Supreme Court, choosing to continue hearings immediately. Despite the incident, he advised the Bar not to be distracted. The accused lawyer’s outburst was reportedly linked to alleged remarks by Gavai, which the former CJI has denied. NEW DELHI: Former Chief Justice of India BR Gavai on Wednesday said he acted on instinct when he decided to proceed with court hearings despite a shoe-hurling attempt on him inside the Supreme Court last month. Speaking to ANI, he said, “Maybe it is a result of my upbringing, when something happened in the court, I didn’t even know that it was related to some alleged utterances made by me in the court or alleged observations made by me in the court. But I felt that I must proceed with the matter and that was a decision taken by me in the spur of the moment.”The incident took place last month on October 6, when lawyer Rakesh Kishore attempted to remove his sports shoes and hurl them at the then CJI during proceedings. Security personnel intervened immediately. Former CJI Gavai continued with the hearing unfazed, advising the Bar, “Don’t get distracted.” Kishore shouted “Sanatan ka apman nahi sahenge” while being taken away by security staff.Later ex judge insisted on no action against the accused lawyer, although the apex court agreed that it was a “clear case of contempt.”The Bar Council of India had suspended Kishore’s licence, and several bar bodies condemned the incident as an attack on the judiciary.Delhi Police said they received no complaint and released Kishore after verification. His outburst was linked by many to comments about Lord Vishnu that Gavai was alleged to have made – remarks the former CJI has already clarified were never made, calling the social media claims inaccurate.About the AuthorTOI News DeskThe TOI News Desk comprises a dedicated and tireless team of journalists who operate around the clock to deliver the most current and comprehensive news and updates to the readers of The Times of India worldwide.

Karnataka minister Satish Jarkiholi revealed Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has urged the Congress high command for a swift decision on leadership change. Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar has consistently expressed his ambition for the chief minister’s role. Jarkiholi plans to discuss the matter with Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge. NEW DELHI: Amid reports of leadership reshuffle, Karnataka minister Satish Jarkiholi on Wednesday said chief minister Siddaramaiah has asked the Congress high command to take an early call on the question of leadership change in the state.Jarkiholi, who handles the public works portfolio, told reporters that he plans to seek an appointment with Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge to discuss the matter. He said the issue of succession must be settled by the party’s national leadership and revealed that Siddaramaiah too prefers a swift decision.According to Jarkiholi, deputy chief minister DK Shivakumar has openly expressed his desire to take over as chief minister since the beginning of the government’s term, though the party chose Siddaramaiah for the top job. He said the final call rests with the high command but added that the chief minister’s remarks make the situation more urgent.”When CM says it, then seniors in the party should take note of it,” he stated. However, he maintained that no internal discussions have taken place among MLAs on a possible leadership shift. “There is no discussion about leadership change in the party. Once it comes up then we will discuss but there is no discussion about it in the party right now,” Jarkiholi said.He also confirmed that he plans to meet Kharge soon to share his views. On speculation around Shivakumar’s active outreach, he remarked that the deputy chief minister has met several people both formally and informally, and added that he too had met him.Responding to home minister G Parameshwara’s claim that he should also be considered for chief ministership, Jarkiholi said Parameshwara had served as Pradesh Congress Committee chief for five years. “I had said in Belagavi that there is nothing wrong in making such claims. So he too is senior but who will decide finally? It happens in Delhi. All that we can do is just make a claim”.Jarkiholi also indicated that Siddaramaiah’s role would remain important even after any future transition. “We (Congress) will require CM Siddaramaiah’s leadership, his service and guidance even after his retirement from the active politics”.The leadership tussle between Siddaramaiah and DK Shivakumar has intensified in recent months, with party sources claiming Shivakumar has been pushing to be named the next chief minister.
