Chief Justice of India Surya Kant clarified that the Supreme Court has not given its approval to the revised Form 6, countering circulating reports.
In a recent statement, Chief Justice of India Surya Kant addressed the media to set the record straight on the status of the revised Form 6. He emphasized that the Supreme Court has not issued any formal approval for the modified document, contrary to rumors that have been circulating among legal circles.
Form 6 is a procedural form used in certain judicial processes, and its amendment has attracted attention from lawyers and litigants alike. The CJI’s clarification underscores that any changes to the form remain pending and have not been ratified by the apex court.
The clarification comes at a time when several petitions have sought guidance on the applicability of the revised version. Until the Supreme Court formally endorses the modification, the original version of Form 6 continues to govern the relevant proceedings.
Legal experts note that the CJI’s statement may influence ongoing debates in lower courts and among practitioners, who have been awaiting a definitive ruling on the matter.
