On Wednesday, Supreme Court Judge SVN Bhatti rescued himself from hearing former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu ♌Naidu's plea for quashing of the FIR in the alleged fraud in the State Skill Development Corporation.
As soon as the matter came before a bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna and SVN Bhatti for hearing, the former said, "My brother has little difficulty in hearing this matter. We are directing it to be listed before another bench nex🐟tꦬ week."
Senior advocate Siddharth Luthra, appeari𓄧ng for Naidu, said he be permitted to mention the plea before a bench headed by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud for an urgent hearing.
"You may do so. Shou🗹ld we pass over this matter to be taken up later?"
🔴Senior advocate Harish Salve, also representing Naidu, said if the bench is not hearing the matter, then passing it🍨 over may not help, and the court may directly list it next week.
Justice Khanna said the bench cannot directly list it on a specific date but mღay order a listꦿing next week.
Naidu had moved the top court on September 23 challenging the Andhra Pradesh High Court order dismissing his petition for quashing the FIR against him in cᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚ🍸ᩚonnection with an alleged scam in the Skill Development Corporation.
The high court had rejected his plea last Friday.
