The Anoop Barenwal v. Union of India (2023) case was heard by a Constitutional Bench, as confirmed by multiple sources. However, the judgment did not equate the grounds for removal of Election Commissioners with those of the Chief Justice of India. The case focused on the appointment process of Election Commissioners to ensure transparency and independence, not on their removal.
