Madras High Court Justice GR Swaminathan G.R. Swaminathan criticised Madurai authorities for failing to light the Karthigai Deepam atop Thiruparankundram Hillock despite clear court directions issued. He said he respects court orders unlike those officials, stressing accountability within the Madras High Court system today.
The Madras High Court upheld its interim stay on Tamil Nadu legislation altering the Governor’s authority to appoint Vice-Chancellors, asserting potential unconstitutionality. It refuted claims of interfering with a Supreme Court decision, emphasizing judicial duty and the necessity of addressing unconstitutional laws without delay, reinforcing commitments to justice and constitutional integrity.
