Senior advocate Dushyant Dave on Thursday told a two-judge bench of the Supreme Court that it should not have heard the batch of petitions challenging the Karnataka High Court on hijab, instead the case should have been referred to a larger bench. Dave, representing some of the petitioners’, appeared annoyed with the limited time allocated to him to argue the case. He said, “Please don’t restrain us in time for arguing...”
He added that the matter affects millions of people and he wants to show the Constituent Assembly debates and the warning of Sardar Patel. Dave said he would not be able to finish his arguments today and this case is a serious matter. Justices Hemant Gupta and Sudhanshu Dhulia agreed with Dave.
