The Tamil Nadu government has approached the Supreme Court challenging the Madras High Court’s order imposing a statewide ban on cow and calf slaughter. The State questioned directions issued to authorities while hearing a PIL seeking regulation of slaughter at authorised places under law.
The Madras High Court sought responses from the Union and Tamil Nadu governments on a plea challenging the treatment of Tamil Thai Vaazhthu during official functions. The petition questions a Union circular allegedly resulting in the State Song being rendered after Vande Mataram and the National Anthem.
