Justice Bhat retires today, but with CJI away in the US, he will miss traditional send-off

IndiaTimes Thursday, 19 October 2023
Justice Sripathi Ravindra Bhat, who is set to retire from the Supreme Court, will not be part of the traditional ceremonial bench on his last day. This bench usually includes the retiring judge and the Chief Justice of India. Justice Bhat's decision to deny civil union and adoption rights to same-sex couples, while unanimously declining the legalization of marriage for queer couples, led to criticism from other judges. Justice Sanjay Kishan Kaul will bid farewell to Justice Bhat.

Lawyers’ letter to CJI: PM Modi reacts, calls ‘bullying’ typical of Congress culture | Oneindia

After approximately 600 lawyers sent a letter to the Chief Justice of India, Prime Minister Narendra Modi took a swipe at the Congress party on Thursday. "Using intimidation tactics is typical of Congress culture. Five decades ago, they advocated for a 'committed judiciary' – they shamelessly demand commitment from others for their own selfish interests but refuse to commit to the nation," the PM stated in a post on X. "It's no surprise that 1.4 billion Indians are turning away from them," he concluded. #DYChandrachud #HarishSalve #Pinkyanand #VestedGroup #SupremeCourtofIndia #Letter #SupremeCourt #IndianLaw #LokSabhaElections #Oneindia #Oneindianews ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.102~
