Ranjit Sharma vs State & Ors on 27 September, 2019
At the outset, it is put to learned senior counsel appearing on
behalf of the parties that on 24.12.2020 a Division Bench of this court
had recused from hearing W.P.(Crl.) No. 2255/2019 titled Ranjit Sharma
vs. State & Ors., which matter, it would appear, was in some way related
LPA 209/2021, LPA 219/2021, LPA 221/2021, LPA 223/2021, LPA 224/2021, LPA 429/2021,
LPA 430/2021, LPA 432/2021, LPA 475/2021 & LPA 52/2022 Page 10 of 11
to the subject matter of the disputes in the present batch of LPAs. That
recusal was on account of the learned Presiding Judge of that Division
Bench being disinclined to hear that case, although one of us viz. Anup
Jairam Bhambhani J. was the other member of that Bench. Counsel are
accordingly asked to express if they have any reservations in the present
Division Bench hearing the matter, with Anup Jairam Bhambhani J.
being one of the members.
