The Supreme Court will hear on October 27 the contempt case against advocate Rakesh Kishore, who threw a shoe at Chief Justice B R Gavai during a court session earlier this month. The incident has raised questions about courtroom decorum.
In the shoe-hurling incident targeting CJI B.R. Gavai, the Supreme Court said it is “not against free speech, but not at the cost of others’ dignity,” warning that unregulated social media is turning into a dangerous, money-spinning venture.
The Rohini Court Bar Association (RCBA) called for a complete strike on 4th June 2025 to protest the violent attack on Advocate Dhruv Shokeen, saying it is unacceptable that police haven’t arrested all accused yet.
SCBA President Vikas Singh, in a letter to CJI Bhushan Ramkrishna Gavai, claimed SCAORA is “acting beyond its mandate.” He accused the association of overstepping its role and interfering in matters beyond its authority.
