Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, appearing for the Centre, said further proceedings before the high court on the PIL shall also be stayed as Tripura has nothing to do with the security of individuals provided in Mumbai.

He said if the proceedings are not stayed, then again he will have to knock on the doors of the top court.

The bench told Mehta, When we have stayed the orders of the high court do you think there will be a need for you to come here. Even if the need arises, we are here.
