SG: I have raised serious concern how selectively judgments are read as was done before the two-judge bench.

CJI: nothing new

SG: Please see Nebam Rebia-few States read Nebam in order to advance that Governor does not have discretion and it was also read to interpret Article 163(2)-it is wholly incomplete and a clear attempt to mislead the court- the judgment notes that Governor can exercise discretion under Article 200...

reads the para

CJI: but this was made in reference to the fact that the Governor does not have unlimited powers

Sibal: Nebam Rebia does not say that the Governor has power to withhold

SG: you are doing tu, tu, mah, mah

CJI: entire judgment is on record, when I came here it was difficult to cope with the speed of the lawyers...this is nothing new here

J Narasimha: now a days certain [portions] are ready

CJI: four of us find it difficult, from one like people go from first to ten

J Kant: in high courts, the facts are read first

SG: when I started, I read it

J Narasimha: next generation must make it clear that they should not adopt this technique, they should go to old-age practice
