Re-election? Nah, We’re Good!
When the Supreme Court plays Umpire, Fair Play is the Only Game!

The Supreme Court played the role of an umpire in the Chandigarh mayoral elections, ensuring that fair play was the only game in town. The Aam Aadmi Party candidate emerged victorious, replacing the Bharatiya Janata Party candidate, in a decision that served as a stark reminder that democracy is not merely about voting, but about fair voting.
When allegations of election rigging by the presiding officer surfaced, the notion of a re-election was proposed. However, the Supreme Court dismissed this idea swiftly. A meticulous examination of the ballot papers revealed no irregularities. It was akin to a crime scene investigation where the crime scene was immaculate. The real offender? The actions of the presiding officer during the counting phase.
The presiding officer, who attempted to manipulate the result, also misled the court. In response, the Supreme Court initiated criminal proceedings against him. The speed at which this verdict was delivered is what sets it apart and makes it a game-changer for all future elections.
India’s commendable record of upholding the integrity of elections can be largely attributed to the efforts of the Election Commission, the silent guardian and watchful protector of India’s democracy. However the Supreme Court acted like a substitute teacher, ensuring smooth operations. This case serves as a stern reminder to all officials that fairness is not just important, it is non-negotiable.

The Intoxicating legal battle Trademarks 🥃⚖️
In an amusing turn of events, two whisky bottles were presented before Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud. The occasion? A trademark violation dispute between two liquor companies.
Senior Advocate Mukul Rohatgi, in a bid to demonstrate the similarity between the products, brought the bottles into the courtroom. The sight of whisky bottles in court prompted laughter from the CJI and his fellow Justices JB Pardiwala and Manoj Mishra.
The case in question revolves around Pernod Ricard’s appeal against an Indore-based company, JK Enterprises, manufacturing beverages under the ‘London Pride’ name. The Madhya Pradesh High Court had previously rejected Pernod Ricard’s appeal, leading to this spirited showdown in the Supreme Court.
The CJI, drawing from his past judgments, remarked, "The issue is about the trade dress here. One of my judgments in Bombay has this aspect covered wherein the shape of the bottle was involved."
The hearing has been slated for two weeks from now, with the High Court’s order stayed in the meantime.
In a final twist, Rohatgi asked if he could take the bottles with him, to which the CJI responded with a smile, “Yes, please.” 🍾🏛️

Suppress your sexual urge: Cal HC

Supreme Court today criticised a judgment passed by the Calcutta High Court that advised adolescent girls to restrain their sexual urges instead of succumbing to momentary pleasure.
The apex court said that such remarks were "highly objectionable and completely unwarranted" and violated the rights of adolescents under Article 21 of the Constitution.
The SC has analysed the Cal HC judgment in the light of Article 21.

With all due respect for the SC judgment, I believe the criticism should have been kept free from a written code and should have been based on upholding the rights and interests of adolescents in matters concerning their sexual and reproductive health and their well-being. The rule of nature and respecting the autonomy of body should have been placed far above rather than relying on a written code under Article 21.

Popularism has become a buzzword for politicians these days. To symbolize the best they can do, they ban liquor as if it is the worst sin of all. But why do they forget non-veg and other things?

Chief Minister said his government has decided to declare January 22 as a “dry day” as the consecration of Ram temple at Ayodhya will take place in on that day.

Suspension of 45 Opposition MPs in Rajya Sabha
A New Low in Parliamentary Democracy?

सदन की कार्यवाही को बाधित करने के आरोप में 45 विपक्षी सांसदों को राज्यसभा से निलंबित कर दिया गया है। तृणमूल कांग्रेस की सांसद महुआ मोइत्रा को लोकसभा से निष्कासित किए जाने के बाद की गई इस कार्रवाई ने लोकतांत्रिक व्यवस्था पर बहस छेड़ दी है। आलोचकों का तर्क है कि सांसदों का निलंबन असहमति की आवाजों और आलोचनाओं के प्रति बढ़ती असहिष्णुता को दर्शाता हैं एवं संपूर्ण संसदीय प्रणाली को कमजोर करता हैं। हालांकि, सरकार सदन की गरिमा और शिष्टाचार बनाए रखने के लिए आवश्यक रूप से अपने कार्यों का बचाव करती नज़र आयी। 🙏🙏

The significance of Govardhan Puja is rooted in the Bhagavata Purana, which narrates the story of Lord Krishna lifting the Govardhan Hill to provide shelter to the villagers of Vrindavan from torrential rains. The incident symbolizes God offering protection to devotees who take singular refuge in him. Devotees worship Govardhan Hill and prepare and offer a large variety of vegetarian food to Krishna as a mark of gratitude. The festival is an occasion for the devotees to renew their faith in taking refuge in God.
In modern times, the festival has taken on a new meaning. It is a reminder of the importance of environmental stewardship and the need to protect our planet. The symbolic offerings represent gratitude for the Earth's bounty and reinforce the values of humility and environmental stewardship. Beyond its mythological origins, Govardhan Puja is a celebration of community, sharing, and recognizing the abundance of nature.

The Indian Army's decision to not provide a guard of honour for Agniveer has caused quite a stir. The leader of a right-wing Hindu group passed away due to a self-inflicted gunshot injury, and hence no guard of honour or military funeral was provided, in accordance with the existing policy.

🥲🥲
I am appalled and disgusted by this horrific news article published in today’s newspaper.
A 13-year-old boy was allegedly sexually assaulted and tortured by his own mother, her boyfriend, and his aunt for months. He was hit with a spatula and forced to sleep in the kitchen. He wrote about his ordeal in a diary, which was found by the police. How can anyone do such a thing to a child?
How can anyone be so cruel and heartless? This is not an isolated case. According to the article, there are 3 cases of child abuse every day in Mumbai. This is unacceptable and intolerable. We need to raise our voice against this evil and demand justice for the victims.
We need to protect our children from these monsters.
We need to create a safe and loving environment for them. We need to now!
Please share this post and spread awareness.
Let's make a difference together.🥹🥲🥲

Wow! What a day for Indian shooters at the Asian Games! 🎉🎉🎉

Sift Kaur Samra, a MBBS dropout, has made history by winning the gold medal in the women's 50m Rifle 3-position event in Hangzhou. She scored 459.9 points, beating China's Zhang Changhong by 1.1 points. 🥇👏

Samra, who hails from Ludhiana, Punjab, had quit her medical studies to pursue her passion for shooting. She had also faced financial difficulties and lack of support from her family. But she did not give up on her dream and worked hard to achieve it. 💪

She is the first Indian woman to win a gold medal in this event at the Asian Games. She is also the third Indian shooter to win a gold medal at Hangzhou, after Abhinav Bindra and Jitu Rai. 🙌

Samra's story is an inspiration for all of us. She has shown that nothing is impossible if you have the courage and determination to follow your heart. She has made India proud with her brilliant performance. 🇮🇳❤️

Let's congratulate her and wish her all the best for her future endeavors. 🙏

The cartoon by Sandeep Adhwaryu published in TOI today exposes the irony and hypocrisy of the government's stance on women's reservation. While the government boasts of its achievement which would become applicable only after 2026, the reality is that women still face many barriers and challenges in accessing education, employment, health, and safety.
The cartoon urges us to demand more from the government and not settle for mere numbers. We need to ensure that women are not only given equal opportunities, but also equal rights and respect.
