Venugopal: I was a young lawyer in the Patel Engineering case decided by 7 judge bench and presided over by late CJ Lahoti where J Nariman came and told the bench that when mylords sit in a bench of this strength, really it is in the nature of a seminar more than adversarial litigation. your lordships take on board all point of view and then try to arrive at a proper system of constitutional interpretation. this case is important because it will govern the lives of almost 1.5 billion people in the country. I want to tell, it will be read and scrutinised by constitutional scholars all over the world.
