"freedom of speech being abused particularly by comics & cartoonists" - Supreme Court speaking the language of state. The language of restriction is language of state. Comics and cartoonists are supposed to find the line and cross it. What good is a right if they can't offend?.

Subtle and gradual rise to complete authoritarianism keeps the pretense of democracy alive! An absurd, political FIR to keep an independent journalist in check.

Earlier, Justice Pankaj Mithal said lady justice statue should carry Gita, Vedas & Puranas to “Indianize” justice! Now, Justice Surya Kant, next in line to head Supreme Court, goes to Sweden & invokes Rig Veda to make a point on equality. Why can't we stick to the Constitution?.

Mr. Dushyant Dave will be missed at the bar! The Supreme Court bar needs fearless lawyers like him today more than ever before. Dave has rendered great service to the nation and to the bar by holding mirror to the Supreme Court. I hope he reconsiders his decision to quit.

BJP leader Nitesh Rane gives hate speech again but of course there will not be any FIR. Speak whatever you like with full impunity because BJP folks are above the law. Those calling out the hate speech will be proceeded against and courts will form SITs to investigate.

Mr. Jagdeep Dhankar will wake up everyday & use his compromised office to lecture Supreme Court on Yashwant Varma matter & go back to sleep. Meanwhile, won't utter a single word on why his political masters are trying to drag impeachment of Shekhar Yadav who's retiring next year.

Why are people so upset about the fact that Mr. DY Chandrachud hasn’t yet vacated the official CJI bungalow? He’ll probably leave the premises later this year after celebrating Ganesh Puja with Prime Minister Modi.

ADR challenges Election Commission's arbitrary order for revision of Bihar electoral roll that can disenfranchise lakhs of voters. In EVM matter, Justice Datta shamed ADR stating "vested groups" are undermining nation's work. Let's hope we don't get to see judicial bullying again.

Either homeopaths and those practicing pseudoscience stop using the title "doctor" or real doctors must find a different title for themselves. For public health sake! Unfortunate that this government and a former Chief Justice used office to lend credibility to pseudoscience.

Legally Homeopathy quacks are allowed to use the title of Dr. in India. Physiotherapists were recently allowed to use the title of Dr. in India. If that is the case, petition to allow nurses to use the title Dr. because if you ask me, if there is a healthcare group that does.

Judges can engage in all sorts of unethical practices on and off bench but a lawyer sipping beer will "dent the glory and dignity of the institution and will be destructive to the rule of law and the institution will collapse. ?" 🤔.

Once in a while, RSS and BJP will force a public debate on deletion of the word secular from Preamble because they want to keep the identity 'pot' boiling. They know deleting the word secular from Preamble will not mean much because it is in-built in Part III of the Constitution.

Sitting Chief Minister issues veiled threat to a comic who has been simply exercising his constitutional rights, including right to freedom of speech and expression. We have seen similar veiled threats coming from a bench of the Supreme Court. Executive, judiciary on same page.

It's been seven months that Mr. Shekhar Yadav of Allahabad High Court made hate speech against Muslims. Business as usual. Gets to sit on the bench for ten more months before he officially retires. And then a plum post after retirement? Because he has Yogi's political patronage?.

Scathing report on Yashwant Varma that Supreme Court kept close to chest now out in public. Yet, he chooses not to resign! CJI doesn’t direct FIR! Govt that hounds opposition leaders, students, activists doesn’t seek CJI sanction to prosecute. Are judges immune from prosecution?.

Mr. Home Minister, please stop talking gibberish! Government has direct accountability in preventing deaths, injuries, accidents, crashes etc! Please resign if you can't ensure safety and security of citizens.

As someone who takes a flight every other day, I am absolutely devastated. Can imagine what the families are going through. We need to fix accountability. Why don't human lives matter in India?.

Yogi's favourite judge gives hate speech and gets away because Supreme Court 'drops plan' to initiate disciplinary inquiry after Rajya Sabha's assertion. Is this why these proceedings aren't made public? So that court can initiate or drop inquiry at will? At executive's behest?.

So according to Allahabad High Court, a person can be criminally prosecuted for simply calling Prime Minister a coward but a judge of the same High Court who gave hate speeches will continue to sit on the bench and perform judicial functions despite indictment by Supreme Court?.

Why does Chief Justice Gavai have to mention Yogi and Modi in his weekend lectures? What has Yogi or Modi got to do with the Indian Constitution? He must be living under a rock if he can't see the flagrant examples of constitutional subversion by Modi and Yogi in recent years.

I am now absolutely certain that Justice Gavai, as Chief Justice, will stop live streaming of court proceedings. If he doesn't do it, Justice Surya Kant, as the next Chief Justice, will do it. But transparency in court proceedings will end sooner or later.
