Supreme Court Reviews Advocate Summoning, Election Plea, Environmental Issues, and High-Profile Criminal Cases
The Supreme Court is addressing several legal issues, including a suo motu case concerning the summoning of advocates by probe agencies during investigations, a plea against the Election Commission filed by a politician, and cases related to demolition of structures and environmental concerns involving tree felling in a Mumbai forest. Additionally, a convict in a high-profile murder case has filed a plea. The High Court is handling petitions such as a jailed parliamentarian's request to modify travel restrictions, a former chief minister's plea to quash an FIR in a land-for-jobs corruption case, and a member of parliament's plea to quash a CBI FIR related to alleged illegal relief to an alcoholic beverage company. Other regional legal and political developments include court appointments and protests related to electoral roll revisions.
