‘To say the least...’: Sibal on PM's ‘silence’ on shoe hurled at CJI BR Gavai
Senior lawyer Kapil Sibal on Monday questioned the “silence” of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other senior members of his cabinet over the shoe-hurling incident on Chief Justice of India (CJI) BR Gavai in the Supreme Court.
Calling the behaviour of the lawyer Rakesh Kishore “uncivilised”, Sibal said that it must be publicly condemned.
“The uncivilised behaviour of a member of the Supreme Court Bar must be publicly condemned by one and all since it is an affront to the majesty of the court,” the former Supreme Court Bar Association president wrote on X.
The former Congress leader and ex-law minister questioned the silence of PM Modi, home minister Amit Shah and current law minister Arjun Ram Meghwal on the issue and called it “surprising”.
“The silence of the PM, the Home Minister and the Law Minister is, to say the least, surprising,” the former Congress leader added.
PM Narendra Modi, home minister Amit Shah, and law minister Arjun Ram Meghwal had not yet reacted to the incident till 7:40 PM. Sibal tweeted at 5:41 PM.
The incident took place when a bench led by the CJI BR Gavai was hearing the mentioning of cases by lawyers on Monday.
The lawyer, identified as 71-year-old Rakesh Kishore, approached the dais, removed his shoe, and tried to throw it towards the judge. However, the security personnel immediately intervened and escorted him out of the court premises, preventing the attack.
As he was being taken away, the lawyer was heard shouting, “Sanatan ka apman nahi sahenge (We will not tolerate any insult to Sanatan).”
Congress parliamentary party chairperson Sonia Gandhi has condemned the incident in the Supreme Court on Monday, in which a lawyer tried to attack the Chief Justice of India, BR Gavai, by hurling a shoe at him.
“No words are adequate to condemn the attack on the Honourable Chief Justice of India in the Supreme Court itself. It is an assault not just on him but on our Constitution as well. Chief Justice Gavai has been very gracious, but the nation must stand in solidarity with him unitedly with a deep sense of anguish and outrage,” Sonia Gandhi's statement read.
Congress leader Udit Raj called the attack on CJI Gavai “a direct attack on the constitution”.
“The failed attempt to throw a shoe at Chief Justice Gavai ji is not the result of any coincidence, but rather seems to be a symbol of the Sanghi–Manuvadi mentality. It's possible that their mother ji's refusal to be a guest at the Vijayadashami event has hurt the RSS,” the former MP said in a post on X.
