SupremeCourt hearing plea seeking traditional cremation for members of the parsi community who succumbed to COVID19.

J Chandrachud- What happened in this matter?

SG Tushar Mehta- We have filed our affidavit, this may not be allowed scientifically.

Sr ADV Fali S Nariman appearing for petitioner submits that we have mentioned their own rules, it can bee considered keeping that in view, some decent burial of bodies.

SG Mehta- I'm not adversarial at all, we'll consider.

J Chandrachud suggests to convene a meeting and decide.

Nariman- We'll get in touch with SG whenever he is available we'll sit together and decide.

SG Mehta- we'll convene whenever Mr Nariman is available it has to be that way.

Nariman- I'm almost free at all times, I do not have much work, it's you who is very busy in this situation.

J Chandrachud- We'll keep it after 2 weeks.
