Hegde: I have some 30 years of assisting constitution benches, sometimes these retirements end up giving judgments which later cause problems. In kesvananda bharti, there was a signed order and we were wandering around to find out the ratio. I have assisted in TM Pai and there was a deadline in as such as J Kirpal was to retire.

I have only one request

CJ: that is why I ruled out this stress

J Nagarathna: nobody is retiring this year
