Bombay HC asks Sr Adv Milind Sathe (for petitioner): Have you made any application (complaint) before News Broadcasting Standards Authority?

This is not a statutory body. They may not be amendable under Article 32. Please decide the larger issues in the case, Sathe urges Court
They should first approach the Press Council and other authorities. Let them look into the matter first: ASG Anil C Singh urges the Court.
Bombay HC starts dictating order.

On September 3, a coordinate Bench had asked the respondents to file their reply affidavits. It was also expected to exercise restraint in regard to reporting of investigation in a manner that could hamper or prejudice the ongoing investigation...: Court records

#mediatrial #SSR
Bombay HC says: we do not see reason to implead (#RheaChakroborty) the proposed respondent number 12, an accused who is presently in judicial custody.

However, the other proposed respondents i.e. NCB, ED, ABP News, India TV, News Nations are impleaded as respondents.

We find that none of the Media Groups are respondents in one of the criminal PILs filed in the matter.

All these media groups have been directed to be impleaded in the matter without any delay.

Supreme Court resumes hearing the challenge to the Allahabad High Court verdict which struck down the UP Board of Madarsa Education Act, 2004

Sr Adv Mukul Rohatgi: the judgment goes against the principle of secularism.. it essentially helps that concept by allowing this education..

CJI DY Chandrachud: secularism essentially means to live and let live

Rohatgi: the HC has gone against it.

#Madrasas #SupremeCourtImage
CJI: are you standing by the validity of the act...

ASG KM Natraj: Yes I support the validity of the act. But since constitutionality has been struck down we want to say something. we are defending the legislation but the state did not file a SLP
ASG: when high court struck down the act, we accepted it.

CJI: but you are saying you stand by the act

ASG: yes we filed a counter.. supporting the law. we can support in legal issues

CJI: as a state you have wide powers under section 20 to ensure basic quality of education in madrasas and as the state if you find that this basic level is not followed then you can intervene and that was your stand before the HC and you said act need not be struck down

ASG: the law can be struck down if it is against fundamental rights or its foul of legislative competence. But in this case... it has to be tested only against part III of the constitution.

Supreme Court to shortly hear case where it said it will issue guidelines for bulldozer-led demolitions and anti-encroachment drives.

#SupremeCourtOfIndia #SupremeCourt #Bulldozer Image
Sr Adv Sanjay Hegde: I am for the fruit seller in Jahangirpuri in whose matter it first reached here. I only urge that it be listed today along with this and tagged.

SC: Okay. Did you tell the other side?
Solicitor General Tushar Mehta: I am appearing for three States including Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh. Very dispassionately I will give my suggestions, UP has in fact shown the way.

SC: But can being criminal accused be a ground?

SG: No absolutely not. Even for heinous crimes like rape or terrorism. Like my lord said it cannot also be that notice issued stuck one day before, it has to be in advance. Town planning authorities have that provision, lordships may say written be given by registered post so this pasting business stops and it gives 10 days time from date of receipt.
