During today’s hearing, in line with previous suggestions for the formation of a committee to deliberate on the issue, Senior Advocate Vikas Singh suggested,
“I was suggesting a retired Supreme Court judge head the committee like Justice Lodha…”
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta replied,
“I think a Constitutional body should head the committee to deliberate.”
CJI Ramana then asked,
“Why doesn’t the Government of India form a committee to study this issue?”
SG Mehta replied that the Central government will help in every way, and that the committee can submit a report on the issue in three months.
