Some people are forgetting that Harish Salve served as an amicus for the environment bench for 10-15 years and contributed to the fight against illegal mining: Anuradha Dutt, Lawyer
When the whole country is suffering, Dushyant Dave should stand with us, instead of criticising Harish Salve: KK Manan, Senior Advocate
When Harish Salve defended Kulbhushan Jadhav, did we ask about the time difference? No. Salve did not ask to be amicus curiae, SC bench appointed him: Suhel Seth, Managing Partner, Counselage India & Brand Guru
I can stand up personally for Mr Salve. He seems to be a part of collateral damage because matters were getting transferred from HC to SCs: Avishkar Singhvi, Advocate, Supreme Court & High Court

Solicitor General Tushar Mehta said, "It was very unfortunate what I read on digital media yesterday. Someone in the judiciary will have to take cognisance. I request Salve to reconsider his decision."
