Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud on Tuesday (August 8) said that as a constitutional democracy, India seeks its public opinions through established institutions like the Parliament and not through Brexit-type referendums.
The Chief Justice, who heads a Constitution Bench examining the challenge to the abrogation of Article 370 of the Constitution, which gave special status to Jammu and Kashmir, was reacting to a submission by senior advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for the petitioners.
