CJI Surya Kant Clarifies 'Don't Waste Time' Remark

CJI Surya Kant clarified that the SC's "don't waste our time" remark is aimed at discouraging frivolous litigation, not genuine litigants. He said judges face heavy caseloads and must prioritise cases of public importance. The observation, he stressed, reflects judicial efficiency rather than disrespect towards lawyers or petitioners.
