High drama in SC as petitioner uses cuss words for, throws papers (Image credit: X) NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court witnessed dramatic scenes on Friday after a petitioner appearing in person created a ruckus during a hearing, threw case papers inside the courtroom and allegedly used abusive language against the Chief Justice of India () before being escorted out by security personnel.The incident took place before a partial working days bench of Justice K V Viswanathan and Justice Alok Aradhe during the hearing of an appeal filed by Prabal Pratap.The petitioner had challenged an Allahabad high court order dismissing his plea against the conversion of his application under Section 173(4) of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS) into a private complaint case.As the matter was taken up, the petitioner made an unusual submission to the bench, saying, "Mr judicial servant, I order you to order the registration of FIR against ACP Vikas Nagar, Lucknow," Live Law reported.Surprised by the remark, Justice Viswanathan responded, "You are ordering me?
You are ordering us?"Moments later, the petitioner allegedly hurled case papers inside the courtroom and used cuss words against the Surya Kant. Supreme Court security personnel immediately restrained him and escorted him out of the courtroom.Despite the disruption, the
bench remained calm and continued hearing the remaining matters listed for the day.The court also chose not to initiate any action against the petitioner over his conduct.In its order, the bench observed, "...considering the condition of the petitioner above-named,
and does not propose to take any action against him. As far as the merit of this case is concerned, we have perused the records, we find no good ground to interfere with the impugned judgment/order(s)."The appeal was accordingly dismissed.
