A PIL before the Calcutta High Court alleges post-election violence, bulldozer use during political rallies, and vandalism in Kolkata following West Bengal Assembly results. Justices Arijit Banerjee and Rai Chattopadhyay permitted formal filing and scheduled hearing Friday.
The Calcutta High Court ruled that Eden Gardens Stadium is not a public space, dismissing the Kolkata Municipal Corporation’s Rs 51 lakh tax demand on the Cricket Association of Bengal. The judgment clarified that public access must be unrestricted for a place to qualify as a public space, which Eden Gardens does not meet.
