New Delhi: A five-judge constitution bench of the Supreme Court, which was to commence adjudication of the decision to demonetise Rs 500 and 1,000 currency notes on its sixth anniversary, frowned at attorney general R Venkataramani's request for adjournment, second time within a month, on the ground that the Union government's response affidavit is not ready yet.
The AG had on October 12 sought adjournment and the bench of Justices S Abdul Nazir, B R Gavai, A S Bopanna, V Ramasubramanian and B V Nagarathna had asked the government and the Reserve Bank of India to file comprehensive affidavits explaining why Section 26 of the RBI Act was invoked to issue demonetisation notification on November 8, 2016. It had also sought details of the deliberations on pros and cons of demonetising Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes while fixing hearing for November 9.
