Petition  

Tamil Nadu Assembly Speaker Dhanapal issued notices to Dhinakaran’s loyalists and AIADMK MLAs Kallakurichi legislator Prabhu, Kalaiselvan (Vriddhachalam) and Rathinasabapathy (Aranthangi) based on a petition filed by chief government whip S Rajendran on April 26

 The Madras high court ordered Kiran Bedi not to interfere in the elected government of the Union territory's day-to-day affairs. The petitioner Lakshminarayanan submitted that there were political differences between the elected Government of Puducherry and the Centre.

Gandhi said that he had made the statement based on the SC’s acceptance of the review petition in the case of the Rafale jet deal in its order passed on April 10 'without having seen or read the order'.

Meanwhile, based on inputs from intelligence agencies, the security status of Thakur has been bumped up to ‘Z’ category. Now, 22 security personnel would accompany her round the clock. Her house too has been fixed with metal detectors.
 

The economic offences wing (EOW) of the Madhya Pradesh government has registered the case sighting illegalities, including financial wrongdoings and recruiting teaching faculty and administrative staff on the basis of their allegiance to a particular ideology.

In the petition, four witnesses have been named and media reports are also submitted. 

The contempt petition was filed by BJP leader Meenakshi Lekhi after Rahul said that the court has made it clear that Prime Minister Narendra Modi "committed theft"

It was ordered by the bench headed by Chief Justice of India Justice Ranjan Gogoi, along with Justices Deepak Gupta and Sanjiv Khanna that the parties will have to show receipts of electoral bonds to the election commission.

In the Rafale case, the Supreme Court had clarified that the reconsideration petition filed on the basis of confidential documents obtained wrongly would be heard. 

In December, the apex court had rejected the petition that accused the government of deliberately procuring 36 Rafale fighter jets at an inflated price to help Anil Ambani’s newly formed defence firm get an offset contract with jet-maker Dassault Aviation.

 The Supreme Court on Tuesday dismissed the plea seeking stay on the release of PM Narendra Modi, a biopic on the life of Prime Minister Modi.

Months after the Pollachi sexual assault shook the entire nation, and amidst political mudslinging, the Supreme Court has refused to entertain the petition seeking a court-monitored probe into the matter. Coimbatore Police have also registered a case against MK Stalin for spreading false information.

The court said that since the Election Commission has taken cognisance of the matter, it would not interfere into it as of now, the petitioner's counsel Manish Yadav told reporters.

The Congress had jumped to derive mileage out of the spurious 'Save Democracy' campaign by Artist United India, and tweeted that communities across were standing up against what it called the BJP government's misuse of power, hate politics and polarisation
