Supreme Court to shortly hear plea seeking to initiate #contempt of court proceedings against comic artist Rachita Taneja at the request of a law student. AG KK Venugopal granting consent stated tweets portray that the #SupremeCourt was biased towards @BJP4India

Proceedings to commence shortly

@sanitarypanels
Senior Adv PS Narasimha: Consent of the AG becomes mandatory as far as criminal contempt is concerned. Reason is in Hooda's case which shows AGs role is highlighted in Section 15 of Contempt of Courts Act

Narasimha: AG saya there is a clear implication that #SupremeCourt is biased towards ruling political party. He says its calculated to undermine and do an act to scandalise the judiciary. He says its deliberate to shake confidence in court
Narasimha: No merit of a case was discussed. Anyone is allowed to have any fair discussion even if it's discorteous to judges. It was always allowed. Its only aimed to malign. She is read everywhere
Supreme Court to pass orders tomorrow. No notice issued.
