The Supreme Court Justice said, “I am sorry. You should have mentioned it in the morning, we would have adjourned it. Please go and rest now.” He further added that he has high reverence for those who could fast all day, without drinking a drop of water. “I really admire the ability to fast for whole days without even a drop of water,” Justice Chandrachud concluded.
