New Jersey asks US Supreme Court to assess power to regulate sports bets on Kalshi
The Supreme Court cautioned Bar Council of India Chairman Manan Kumar Mishra that he holds only a pro tempore position and is not a democratically elected officeholder. This distinction was emphasized by a three-judge bench led by Chief Justice Surya Kant, as they considered challenges to Mishra's extended tenure. The court affirmed that Mishra's duties are confined to overseeing the BCI's day-to-day operations until a new Council is formed.
The bench suggested that the Attorney General and Solicitor General, who are permanently ex-officio members of the BCI, should participate in significant policy decisions. The observations clarified the difference between Mishra's interim role and the powers of a democratically elected BCI Chairman.
