The court said the duo hadn't complied with its July 18, 2016 order and were thus removed.
Speaking to reporters in the capital, retired Chief Justice RM Lodha, who heads the Lodha Panel, expressed his satisfaction at the result, and declared it was not surprising the Supreme Court had made such a strong decision.
