Supreme Court Developments in Elgar Parishad-Maoist Case: Justice Sundresh Recuses

Justice M M Sundresh of the Supreme Court has recused himself from hearing the bail plea of advocate Surendra Gadling, implicated in the Elgar Parishad-Maoist links case. There have been multiple adjournments in the matter. Justice N Kotiswar Singh remains on the bench amidst ongoing legal proceedings.

Justice M M Sundresh of the Supreme Court on Tuesday stepped away from the bail plea hearing of advocate Surendra Gadling, a key figure in the Elgar Parishad-Maoist links case.

The apex court's digital records indicate that this highly anticipated case will no longer appear before Justice Sundresh, leaving Justice N Kotiswar Singh on the bench.

Earlier, advocate Anand Grover had sought an expedited hearing before Chief Justice B R Gavai, noting Gadling's prolonged detention over 6.5 years.
