Supreme Court to deliver judgment on petition filed by the Tamil Nadu government against Governor RN Ravi's refusal to grant assent to several bills passed by the State Legislative Assembly, including those concerning the appointment of Vice Chancellors to State Universities #SupremeCourtImage
The State had moved the Court seeking directions to the Governor/ President to decide or give assent to bills passed by the State legislature in a time-bound manner.

The State government has argued that the Governor, by indefinitely withholding assent on these bills, was holding the entire State to ransom. In such a situation, the Court must intervene, the Tamil Nadu government argued.Image

Justice Bela Trivedi: You could not have filed the SLP. If you don't get it you should not be a AoR. I will not leave the case just like that. You took undue advantage of some thing

AoR: I take responsibility

SC: you have no option but to take this. Apology will not doImage
Justice Trivedi: judgment had come and you are challenging it. Should you not read the papers. Where is the scope for any explanation.

AoR: my learned friend

SC: don't say learned fried. We are agitated and pained. Day in and day out we are seeing this. It is you and only you. For surrendering you say condone delay. Then in condonation application.. what kind of language is being used
AoR: the plea has been drawn by someone else

Justice Trivedi: So what ?????? It bears your signature or not

AoR: it does.

[Can visually impaired become judges ? ]

#SupremeCourt to shortly deliver judgment on this significant issue

The court to hand down verdict in the suo motu case concerning visually impaired in judicial services Image
The genesis of the case lies in the rules governing judicial appointments in Madhya Pradesh which contained discriminatory language that prevented blind individuals from becoming judges.

This exclusion was challenged after a mother, whose visually impaired child aspired to the judiciary, wrote to the court, leading to a court-initiated public interest litigation.
Justice R Mahadevan: we have treated it as the most important case. We have touched upon constitutional framework also and institutional disability jurisprudence...

#SupremeCourt to shortly hear plea by Ranveer Allahabadia and Ashish Chanchlani in the case over remarks made in #indiasgotlatent show

Allahabadia and Chanchlani were protected from arrest in the last hearing

Dr Abhinav Chandrachud: We have moved an application. We are seeking lifting of one part of the order which refrained him from airing his shows etc. He has no sense of humour at all.. but he has 280 employees and it is his livelihood. It can be ordered that let no profane words be uttered.
SG: this is an isolated case. It is not vulgar but it is perverse. I saw the show also out of curiosity.. humour is one thing, vulgarity is one thing, and perversity is another level. Leave alone man and woman.. me and AG cannot see it together. The judges cannot see it together. Let him stay quiet for sometime .. Assam called him. He did not come.
