TV visuals showed prime minister's Principal Secretary Nripendra Misra driving to the residence of CJI Dipak Misra. However, the gates were not opened and after waiting for a while, he left.
The development came a day after four senior-most judges of the Supreme Court virtually revolted against the CJI, raising questions over "selective" case allocation.
After the TV visuals were aired, the Congress was quick to criticise the government.
Terming the concerns raised by the four judges as "unprecedented and sensitive", the Congress had yesterday demanded a probe into the issues flagged.
On the other hand, the BJP had charged the Congress with "politicising the internal matters" of the judiciary.
