A team from the Bar Council of India – the regulatory body of lawyers – will meet Chief Justice of India Dipak Misra at 7:30 this evening as it attempts to broker peace between him and the four senior-most judges of the Supreme Court who took him on in public .
The seven-member panel will also meet other judges of the top court through the day to seek their opinion on resolving the unprecedented crisis that has hit the judiciary.
On Friday, Justices J Chelameswar, Ranjan Gogoi, Madan Lokur and Kurian Joseph, in a hurriedly-called press conference, declared that the administration of the Supreme Court “is not in order”.
The judges said they were making their disagreement with the Chief Justice public after private talks failed to address what they said were serious problems with the running of the Supreme Court.
