New Delhi: “I got it [Omicron], I had it for four days. I am still feeling the effects. It’s a silent killer, you know. I suffered in the first wave but recovered quickly. Now, in this wave, it’s been 25 days and I am still suffering,” said the Chief Justice of India on Wednesday.

He was responding to Supreme Court Bar Association president Vikas Singh who requested the CJI to resume full physical hearings in the Supreme Court.

“I am happy that physical hearings have started. I request that full physical hearings be resumed in the Supreme Court. Omicron is like a viral fever and people get better soon. It’s much milder,” said Vikas Singh.

In response, CJI NV Ramana said that he was still suffering from the after-effects of Omicron variant of Covid-19.

Stating that he was still suffering, the CJI said, “There is a jump of 15,000 cases now.”

Vikas Singh replied, “Your lordship has been unlucky in that regard. But people are recovering.”

The CJI concluded that the court will evaluate the situation and take a call.
