J Nagarathna: what is the defamation?

#SupremeCourt hears the SCBA v. BD Kaushik matter pertaining to electoral reforms in SCBA

Bench: CJI Surya Kant, J Joymalya Bagchi and J V Mohana

Sr Adv Vikas Singh: We have nominated Election Committee...Mr. Jaideep Gupta is the Chairman

A sr counsel: Mr. Vikas Singh did not inform this court earlier that voter list had been finalized. Every time attempt is to extent tenure

Adv Nedumpara: These are affairs of a society. Being hijacked by petitions...where is the jurisdiction of this court? A counsel: Your lordships have put some conditions. A misc. application has been filed...50 appearances should be reduced to 25

Nedumpara: Every member should be allowed to vote

A sr counsel: idea was to weed out people who don't regularly practice here...this is a 3rd bite at the cherry...all these points were argued

CJI: Seems nobody is opposing the reforms. One idea appears to be reforms should be implemented from this year only

Nedumpara: Every member should be able to vote and contest.

#BREAKING Calcutta High Court is hearing a plea by TMC MP Mahua Moitra @MahuaMoitra seeking action against an alleged ‘mob attack’ on her when she had gone to attend a political event.

Counsel: she was served notices for questioning after she protested against the egg-pelters and asked them to face her directly.

#CalcuttaHighCourt Counsel: that statement was extrapolated

Court: who is appearing for the state?

Counsel: we have served notice. Even last time this happened. I have a very limited point.

Court: nobody is appearing for state? Have you served upon the GP?

#BREAKING Calcutta High Court is hearing a plea by Mamata Banerjee-led TMC seeking to hold their annual Martyr’s Day rally on 21st July.

#SupremeCourt hears pleas challenging CBSE circulars that imposed mandatory learning of two languages native to India as part of the 3-language formula in class VI

CJI Surya Kant: Just verify if they have issued a clarification?

Sr Adv Anand Grover: Circulars are without authority of law. Only NCERT has authority, not CBSE. They are imposing languages without giving options. No teachers, no books available if I want to learn Punjabi (instead of Sanskrit). As a child, I must have opportunity to learn language which will give me employment

Sr Adv Gopal S: Two different batches here. we are appearing in fresh matters. For senior classes, there has been dilution. They have taken a 300 yr old language and treated English as non-native language

J Bagchi: We don't understand this word 'native' language. J Joymalya Bagchi: What the authorities intended to do...under Constitution, it's a constitutional goal that Indian languages will take over...encouragement is made...nomenclature may require some relook...how do we use 'native Indian language'...but the spirit is clear. Can India consider English as an indigenous Indian language? Parsi at one time was official language of the court.

Gopal S: Choice is left to the states

Sr Adv Shyam Divan: Despite dilution, there is a problem

CJI: Despite this circular of 29 June 2026, issues still survive?

#SupremeCourt to shortly hear PIL challenging the 84th and 87th Constitutional Amendments, which deal with #delimitation of Parliamentary and State Assembly constituencies

Petitioner further challenges Article 55, 81, 82, 170, 330 and 332 of the Constitution, insofar as they permit reliance on population figures of 1971 and/or 2001

He also challenges the recent Special Intensive Revision (#SIR) exercise for being conducted without prior delimitation based on latest census

Bench: CJI Surya Kant, J Joymalya Bagchi and J V Mohana Hearing begins

Petitioner: I have challenged constitutional validity...India is a representative democracy...representation has to be based on latest population census. Parliament has excluded 70% Indian citizens...they were born after 1971! We are not considered for representation purposes. Noida, Gurugram, Mohali did not used to exist/had low populations...see now!

CJI: Why do you say they will not be considered? We appreciate that if 70% is excluded, then what kind of delimitation? But what is the basis? Right to vote has nothing to do with delimitation. Kaunsa village hai?

Petitioner: Jhajjar

CJI: Whether your village goes to [...] or [...] constituency, it cannot deprive you of right to vote.

Sr Adv: Lawyers were there with eggs in hand. I feel ashamed to be a part of this fraternity. I will argue that this is criminal contempt…interfering with the course of justice.

#CalcuttaHighCourt Court: now this matter is pending in a PIL before the Chief Justice. We have read that an SOP is to be formulated.

Datta: unfortunately, things are being invented and the judiciary had to step in. Everything is happening in front of the police, with people who are supposed to be in custody of law.

#CalcuttaHighCourt Sr Adv: the state cannot tell me when to protest. It is my democratic right under article 19. Every day the right is there. It is not restricted to weekends.

Let the government declare that nothing will be done in the state except the weekend, we will accept that. Peculiar stand.

J Sundresh: It was thrown or she pushed?

SG: He was killed and then dead body was thrown in gorge...found after 3 days. Lady herself was part of physical assault. She was arrested somewhere in UP...she absconded.
