In a BBC interview, Former Chief Justice DY Chandrachud defended his stance on the abrogation of Article 370, explaining it as a "transitional provision" meant to fade away. He questioned if 75 years was too short a time for its removal. Chandrachud addressed legal scholars' disappointment with the Supreme Court's 2019 decision, emphasizing that the elected government had the right to abrogate such provisions. He also discussed his tenure as CJI, the expansion of justice access, and the diversity of judicial recruitment.
