CJI criticises BCI’s interference in ‘dialogue’ between him and students
The Supreme Court, led by CJI D.Y. Chandrachud, restrained the Bar Council of India (BCI) from taking coercive action against NALSAR University students, faculty, and administration following BCI letters questioning a student-faculty dialogue. The Court sought an affidavit from BCI, noting the letters created a 'chilling effect' on freedom of speech. This highlights judicial protection of academic autonomy and free expression in legal education institutions.
