New Delhi, November 12: Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna on Tuesday clarified that he would not entertain oral mentioning of matters for urgent listing. CJI said that requests for urgent listing should be made through e-mails or written letters stating the urgency.

"No oral mentioning, send by emails or written letters," CJI Khanna told lawyers who were mentioning matters.

Usually lawyers mention their cases before the CJI-led bench at the outset of the day's proceedings for out of turn listings and hearing of cases on grounds of urgency.

“No written or oral mentionings anymore. Only in email or written slip/letters. Just state the reasons for urgency,” the CJI said.

The CJI has outlined a citizen-centric agenda for judicial reforms and said ensuring easy access to justice and equal treatment to citizens regardless of their status is the constitutional duty of the judiciary.

 Justice Khanna, who was sworn in as the 51st CJI by President Droupadi Murmu at the Rashtrapati Bhavan on Monday, expressed deep honour in leading the judiciary, the third pillar of democracy.
