Senior advocate A M Singhvi, showing for Khera, had talked about the matter for pressing itemizing earlier than a bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud. Singhvi earlier instructed the apex courtroom bench that a number of FIRs have been lodged in opposition to Khera over his alleged remarks in opposition to the prime minister. “He (Khera) has made statements in a press conference. He has made certain statements which I cannot say in the court but I personally would not have made,” Singhvi mentioned.
He mentioned as a result of statements, a number of FIRs have been lodged in opposition to Khera in completely different states and, presently, Assam Police are on the airport right here to take him into custody.

Singhvi, representing Congress leader Pawan Khera, tells Supreme Court that Khera apologised and mentioned that it was a mistake, a slip of tongue.
