The Supreme Court (SC) on Thursday indicated that it may appoint a pro tem chairperson to discharge the functions of a Delhi Electricity Regulatory (DERC) Commission chairperson for “a little while” after the Delhi government and Lieutenant-Governor failed to reach a consensus on a name.
A three-judge Bench headed by Chief Justice of India (CJI) D.Y. Chandrachud said it needed time to consult possible candidates, who would be former High Court judges, and zero in on a name. The court listed the case on August 4.
