CBSE COMPARTMENT EXAMS:

Supreme Court will take up for hearing today petition challenging the CBSE notification of August 6 for holding of compartment exams.

#SupremeCourt @cbseindia29
#compartmentexam2020

@cbseindia29

The petition challenges the notification on the grounds that holding of these exams would be detrimental to the health of the students.

#SupremeCourtOfIndia @cbseindia29 #compartmentexam2020

The Bench of Justices AM Khanwilkar, Dinesh Maheshwari and Sanjiv Khanna begins hearing.

Counsel for the petitioner: Main grievance in the matter is that the main exam and the CBSE has not yet asserted why the compartment exam cannot be cancelled.

Petitioner: The students will ultimately come in the category of failed students since exams will not be able to be conducted by September and the students will not be able to apply for further studies.

#SupremeCourt #compartmentexam2020

SC asks petitioner for clarity on the prayer sought

SC: Without the exams, where do you stand? Is there a scheme by CBSE?

#SupremeCourtOfIndia #compartmentexam2020

@cbseindia29

Petitioner: The main exam was not conducted so why can there not be a scheme to cancel compartment exams.

#SupremeCourtOfIndia #compartmentexam2020 @cbseindia29

Advocate Rupesh Kumar for CBSE: We have increased the centres for compartment exams to 1278. We have taken a decision that in a class where 40 students could sit, now only 12 will sit. We are taking all precautions.

#SupremeCourt #compartmentexam2020

SC: Have the exam dates been fixed?

Kumar: The notification is expected to come out today and the exams are likely to be in September only.

@cbseindia29

Supreme Court asks when the exams are proposed.

Kumar: End of September.

#SupremeCourt #compartmentexam2020 @cbseindia29

@cbseindia29

Supreme Court to hear the case on September 10 and asks CBSE to file a short affidavit

#SupremeCourt #compartmentexam2020 @cbseindia29

@cbseindia29

Petitioner points out that admissions in Universities will close by the time the exams are conducted.

Kumar for CBSE says that on the one hand petitioners want cancellation of exams and then also raise grievance of admissions.

Supreme Court fixes the date for hearing on September 10.

Supreme Court hears the Ranveer Allahabadia case:

Adv Prashant Bhushan: I appear for a disabled professor. This is a very important issue on free speech and how such stakeholders need to be taken into confidence while having consultations

SG Tushar Mehta: Right now we are not dealing with obscenity. But with perversity. Something needs to be done on user generated content. One can have his own @YouTube channel and....we cannot do everything and anything under the garb of free expression

CJI Surya Kant: It is strange that I create my own channel and keep doing things without being accountable. Yes free speech has to be protected ..suppose there is a program with adult content.. there can be warning in advance with parental control.

AG R Venkataramani: Ministry of Information and Broadcasting is proposing to have a meeting. They will do everything possible to have a public consultation

CJI: if some provisions need to be incorporated or something needs amendment

SG: yea being considered. I had a word with the minister.

Indian Broadcast and Digital Foundation counsel: Age classification and warnings are in place. There are Digital Media Ethics Code. This code is subjudice.. it was challenged before various HCs and union filed a transfer and it was transferred to Delhi HC and it is to be heard on January 8. This concerns content it Netflix etc. There are 27 petitions. There are Broadcast complaint commission headed by Justice Gita Mittal. Here the category is different. Here comments were made in a user generated content. Ministry has filed a note saying UGC guidelines they are thinking about.

CJI: what is the single instance of penalty or action ? Self styled bodies will not help..some autonomous bodies are free from the influence from those who are exploit all of this and the state also... as a regulatory measure.

CJI BR Gavai speaks a day before he demits office as 52nd Chief Justice of India

Q: Post retirement?

CJI: I have made it clear that I will not accept any post retirement opportunity. I will like to work for tribals. I will be in Delhi only primarily.

Transfers controversy?

CJI: We only made transfers when it was needed or guidance of senior judges were needed in that High Court. Some transfers were because of complaints were received but they were processed only after verification from the consultee judges.

Social media uproar?

CJI: What you don't say in court is put in your mouth. Some AI clip shows that the shoe missed Justice Vinod Chandran and touches me. Technology has advantages and disadvantages.
