Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud reprimanded senior advocate Mathews Nedumpara for disrupting a NEET-UG hearing in the Supreme Court on Tuesday. Nedumpara interrupted advocate Narender Hooda's arguments, prompting Chandrachud to order security to remove him from the courtroom. Despite Nedumpara's protestations, the Chief Justice asserted control, stating that lawyers cannot dictate courtroom procedure. Solicitor General Tushar Mehta criticized Nedumpara's behavior as "contemptuous." Nedumpara, known for previous courtroom conflicts, later issued a statement, forgiving the court for what he described as humiliation.
