A Bengaluru court has rejected a defamation complaint against Karnataka CM Siddaramaiah for his Assembly remarks that “most of those committing crimes are from RSS and Bajrang Dal.” The court ruled the statements are protected under constitutional privilege and no personal reputation was harmed.
The Advocates’ Association of Bengaluru will convene on March 24 to address judicial corruption, emphasizing the need for a robust system to remove corrupt judges. Key proposals include mandatory asset declarations, a fast-track removal system, and enhanced judicial accountability. These measures aim to restore public trust in the legal system.
