Just In:
[Lakhimpur Kheri Violence case] Final arguments concluded on Ashish Mishra's bail plea in Allahabad High Court today.
#lakhimpurkheri Image
Mishra's counsel argued that Mishra was not driving the Thar which had allegedly killed protestors and he was only seen running away from crime scene.
"There is no evidence on record to impose any criminal liability on my client, he is being connected unnecessarily," he said.
One correction application was filed at the last moment. Though Mishra's counsel argued that as the court had decided to reserve the order before it, let separate orders be passed.
However, court allowed the application and directed the main bail plea to be corrected by tonight.

#SupremeCourt to hear plea filed by Bhartiya Janta Party MLA's challenging the resolution passed by the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly suspending the BJP MLA's for a period of one year over alleged misbehavior with the presiding officer. Image
Sr ADV C Aryama Sundaram submitted that "How far a judicial review can be applied for the quantum of the punishment."

Justice AM Khanwilkar- there is no question of judicial review, there is a limit given.
Anything beyond that would be unconstitutional.
J Khanwilkar- If the legislature was to provide beyond this period, would it not hit the Act made by parliament or the constitution.

Does the exception to Section 375 of Indian Penal Code discriminate against married women?
Delhi High Court to hear plea(s) challenging the constitutionality of the exception viz. Marital Rape. #Maritallaws #maritalrape
Union seeks some time to work out a consultative process, Judge says it would like to hear the case.
Union then says a comprehensive re-look is required in the case and it should not be half-hearted. #maritalrape
I suggest let the amicus make submissions, it would equip the Union too: Union (SG Tushar Mehta)
Judge says let the amcus finish. “These counsel are busy counsel!”

SG says he’d never come in the way of their submissions #maritalrape #DelhiHighCourt
