Jharkhand High Court takes a serious view after an advocate allegedly threatened the court during an anticipatory bail hearing in a land-grabbing case. The Bar Council chairman intervened, and the matter is under review for disciplinary action.
The Jharkhand High Court ruled that the state cannot suspend internet services during examinations without prior court permission, emphasizing that such actions violate fundamental rights. The court criticized the government’s justification for the broader shutdown, suggesting it constituted contempt of court and lacked factual basis, undermining public convenience and judicial authority.
