SC had observed it would form a committee leading to formation of standards for electronic media. It had also said that one "cannot say that Muslims are infiltrating the civil services." The channel was injuncted from airing any more episodes till further orders.
Centre in its reply has informed SC that it should first regulate digital media as it has a wider reach. Next ir contends that SC should not lay down standards without an amicus or committee of amicus since its one show or a few episodes.
@MIB_India
News Broadcasters Association, on the other hand says their regulations are referred to by various HCs and that they have rules and an authority in place to recieve complaints against electronic media, impose cost on them or even refer them to @MIB_India for license revocation
.@SureshChavhanke @SudarshanNewsTV has informed SC that UPSC Jihad was used as a terminology in the show owing to the foreign funding pooled in by the Zakat Foundation and how "infiltration was happening in the UPSC"

Supreme Court hears the case where village residents oppose the burial of a Christian man in the graveyard of their village in Chhattisgarh’s Bastar

Son of deceased Ramesh Baghel, a farmer from a Scheduled Caste (SC) community, who has kept the body in a mortuary for 12 days now is before supreme court

Justice BV Nagarathna: Why cannot a person before buried where they wanted to. Body is in mortuary? We are sorry to say that A person has to come to supreme court for the burial of his father. The HC, panchayat etc are not able to solve the problem. The HC says there will be law and order problem.. we are pained at this.Image
SG Tushar Mehta: if the case is to be decided only on emotions then I have nothing to say, else let it be argued

Sr Adv Colin Gonsalves: see the real reason, burial not being allowed because the person had converted.

SG: Intention may be to make this a precedent for rest of country. There is burial ground for the tribals who are not Christians. Though they are not christians they bury their dead. When christians die, just 20 km away there is a christian burial ground and they take the dead their and bury them. This ground is a Hindu tribal burial ground. Thus rather than not being vehement that I will not go 20 kms away.. then there are laws..
Justice Nagarathna: but what about burying in own land?

SG: once you bury or cremate someone in a private land the character of land changes it becomes a sacred place and it also has health issues. That is not permitted.. cremation etc is not allowed in private lands

Justice Nagarathna: no no nothing remains after cremation...

SG: it is not about one person it is the beginning of something else.

Supreme Court hears appeal challenging the Madras High Court's decision to allow Carnatic vocalist TM Krishna to receive theΒ Sangita Kalanidhi MS Subbulakshmi Award.

ASG Venkataraman: Award was
conferred and it was greatly publicised. He is a person who made misogynistic comment against her

#SupremeCourtImage
ASG: the single judge order is in effect. The music academy could not have given the award yersterday. Can an injunction be breached and a public act be committee? Court is not powerless.
ASG: the court can stay this award or till suit is pending the fourth respondent cannot use the name of the award at all

Sr Adv Gopal Sankarnarayanan: Fourth respondent is not represented here as of now.
