CJI Surya Kant recuses from hearing pleas against 2023 EC appointments law; cites conflict of interest Chief Justice of India Surya Kant recused himself from hearing petitions challenging the 2023 law on appointing election commissioners, citing a conflict of interest. The law removed the CJI from the selection panel, a change stemming from a previous Supreme Court ruling. The matter will now be heard by a bench without a prospective CJI. #Chief_Justice #Surya_Kant #CJI_Surya #India_Surya #interest_Chief #Kant_recuses #cites_conflict #election_commissioners #hearing_pleas #hearing_petitions
