As Salve said that he had himself not seen the documents sent by Maharashtra government, the bench told him to go through the documents and if he finds some are sensitive, then he can hold them back.

Justice Mishra said, “Unless there is something, there should not be any confidentiality. Normally there should not be any objection in sharing the documents.”

Salve said that he has a spare copy which he can share with senior counsel Pallav Sisodia – appearing for the petitioner – but he should keep it to himself.
