The Supreme Court Bar Association announced that all retiring Supreme Court judges will be granted honorary SCBA membership, with President Vikas Singh stating the initiative aims to strengthen Bench-Bar relations, encourage interaction with retired judges and enable lawyers to benefit from their judicial experience.
Justice GR Swaminathan questioned Senior Advocate Vikas Singh over reported remarks suggesting the judge had political ambitions during the Thiruparankundram lamp-lighting contempt hearing. The Madras High Court also sought an explanation from the State Chief Secretary over alleged non-compliance with court orders.
