The Supreme Court will have four special benches to conduct proceedings in issues relating to criminal matters, direct and indirect tax matters, land acquisition matters, and motor accidents claims tribunal.
"The Supreme Court will have four special benches for conducting the hearing on issues -- criminal matters, direct and indirect tax matters, land acquisition matters, and motor accidents claims tribunal -- from next week," said Chief Justice of India (CJI) DY Chandrachud.
CJI Chandrachud announced this on Wednesday when an advocate mentioned his matter relating to land acquisition for an urgent hearing.
He asked the lawyer to mention the matter before the special bench dealing with land acquisition and said that it may be Justice Surya Kant who will be leading benches dealing with land acquisition issues.
Last week, the CJI's bench also apprised about a full court meeting decision that each bench of the Supreme Court will take up 10 transfer petitions and 10 bail matters every day to dispose of all such matters before the winter vacation.
