A petition has been filed before the Supreme Court seeking to restrain Prime Minister Narendra Modi from offering a ceremonial chadar at the Ajmer Sharif Dargah. The plea relates to the 814th Urs of Sufi saint Khwaja Chisti.
A senior advocate named in the impeachment notice against Madras High Court judge Justice G R Swaminathan has dismissed the accusations as a “charade” and denied any preferential treatment in court. The move has triggered strong backlash, with over 50 former judges calling it a threat to judicial independence.
