From the National Herald case to the IRCTC scam, major 2025 Delhi court cases drew nationwide attention. High-profile politicians like Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, and Lalu Prasad Yadav faced scrutiny, while courts also dealt with terror incidents including the 26/11 Mumbai attack and the Red Fort blast.
The Supreme Court set aside a Patna High Court order that quashed a cheque dishonour complaint, holding that the High Court wrongly conducted a “roving enquiry” at the pre-trial stage. The apex court restored the complaint, saying a prima facie case under Section 138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act was made out.
Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge welcomed the Delhi court’s refusal to take cognisance of the ED chargesheet in the National Herald case, calling it a blow to the Modi government’s alleged political conspiracy. He said the verdict proves that “victory of truth is certain” and reaffirmed Congress’s fight to protect democracy and the Constitution.
