“The Supreme Court collegium has not given is final decision on his elevation,” party spokesman Shakeel Ahmed told IANS.

The Congress reaction came amid reports that some of its Dalit MPs would meet the party leadership to urge it to oppose any move to impeach the judge.

The impeachment motion has been moved by 75 Rajya Sabha MPs from the Bharatiya Janata Party, the Left, the AIADMK and the Janata Dal-United.
