barandbench.com/news/litigatio…
The Court held that words ‘Smash Brahmanical Patriarchy’ could not be construed as having any direct link with the religious sentiments of any section of society.

The order was pronounced today by Justice Sandeep Mehta.

@jack @misskaul @manishm345 @BDUTT
Complainant R. Sharma had alleged that the act amounted to spreading hatred against Brahmins & “destroying Indian culture”.

In his plea to quash @jack had informed the Court - placard was given to him as a gift by a Dalit woman who shared her story of abuse. @TwitterIndia
I am of the firm opinion that allowing investigation of the impugned FIR to be continued is absolutely uncalled for. Without any doubt in the mind of this court, the FIR does not disclose necessary ingredients of any cognizable offence.

@jack @TwitterIndia @Twitter
The words in the poster at best convey the feelings of the concerned person regarding being strongly opposed to the Brahminical Patriarchal system and desirous of denouncing the same - Rajasthan HC

Migrant workers: #SupremeCourt begins hearing petition by Harsh Mander and Anjali Bhardwaj concerning payment of wages to migrant workers amid lockdown due to #Covid_19.

Matter is taken up for hearing via video conferencing.

#migrantworkers
@harsh_mander
@AnjaliB_
Advocate Prashant Bhushan tells the Court that lakhs of migrant workers are placed in shelter homes and this will make #SocialDistancing difficult; adds that if one person contracts the virus, it puts everyone in the shelter home at risk.

"They should be allowed to go home"
Bhushan says wages should be released because the migrant workers rely on wages for their meals.

CJI SA Bobde asks why wages are required when meals are being provided by the govt.

Bhushan points out meals given in shelter homes; not all migrant workers are in shelters

Nirbhaya: Supreme Court begins hearing a plea filed by one of the convicts, Mukesh, which claims that there was concealment of documents and thus trial stands vitiated.

#Nirbhaya
#SupremeCourt
Three-Judge Bench takes up the matter for hearing.

Advocate ML Sharma begins making the submissions on behalf of one of the convicts in the 2012 Delhi rape case, Mukesh.

#Nirbhaya
#SupremeCourt
Sharma says that petitioner has accepted his fate and does not seek to delay the execution; says that in future no innocent person should be made to suffer on account of media pressure.

Sharma says, the question is if justice was given to the accused.
