Justice Sanjiv Khanna, who was a member in the three-judge bench, headed by Justice AM Khanwilkar and Justice JK Maheshwari, recused from hearing the two SLPs. A battery of lawyers, including the Solicitor General, top advocates, Harish Salve, Kapil Sibal, C Aryama Sundaram, and Abhishek Manu Singhvi, had appeared today in the case in the Supreme Court, which fixed further hearing on September 13.
