Justice Bhat retires today, but with CJI away in the US, he will miss traditional send-off

IndiaTimes Thursday, 19 October 2023
Justice Sripathi Ravindra Bhat, who is set to retire from the Supreme Court, will not be part of the traditional ceremonial bench on his last day. This bench usually includes the retiring judge and the Chief Justice of India. Justice Bhat's decision to deny civil union and adoption rights to same-sex couples, while unanimously declining the legalization of marriage for queer couples, led to criticism from other judges. Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul will bid farewell to Justice Bhat.
