AG K.K. Venugopal gave consent to 8 persons to initiate contempt of court proceedings against Kamra for his 'objectionable' tweets on SC order granting bail to Arnab Goswami.
The travel ban was imposed after Kamra was found 'guilty' by an internal committee of IndiGo, on whose flight he had allegedly heckled TV anchor Arnab Goswami.
Kunal Kamra's legal notice demands action against officials who he claims banned him in violation of civil aviation requirements after he heckled Arnab Goswami.
Arnab Goswami’s Republic TV is notorious for monologues masquerading as political debates. But when questioned by Kunal Kamra on an Indigo flight, the anchor couldn’t stand up.
Kunal Kamra got enormous support over travelling ban by some airlines. Sharjeel Imam has been charged with sedition and is being treated like a terrorist.
The kinds of revisions we’re seeing remove the very skills that make historical thinking meaningful. The result is a citizen who either dismisses history entirely or defends it without support.
Indian toymakers are now exploring new markets, but they want govt to negotiate a trade deal with US soon, introduce incentives and subsidies to make the industry more competitive.
The project is meant to be a ‘protective shield that will keep expanding’, the PM said. It is on the lines of the ‘Golden Dome’ announced by Trump, it is learnt.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
We can hope, but the hope rests on assumed strength of the 3rd pillar, and that’s become questionable last few years.
On the other hand, if they do take cognizance and end up having court proceedings, the least they can do is to clarify and respond in detail to Kamras tweets. No grand statements on majesty of law and no pontification please. Quite a few of the audience for these statements is currently in jail with their bail petitions failing to get scheduled.
Wishing the wonderful team at Print and their families a happy Diwali. One more year of chronicling, with passion and integrity, India’s trek to a better future for all its citizens. Asha – Ashok. Ananyadevi from Singapore.
Justice Chandrachud had said that dissent is the safety valve of democracy. So, in a way, is social media. It allows ordinary people to express themselves on public affairs, the working of institutions, the most trusted of which is the judiciary, with a candour that would not be possible in the case of mainstream media. Which in any case is going through an exceptionally deferential phrase. 2. It would be stating the obvious that all is not well with the judiciary. The tenure of the previous CJI, concluding in his elevation to the Rajya Sabha, was eventful. The manner in which allegations made against him by a lady employee were dealt has not created an excellent precedent. An awkward situation has arisen with the CM of AP making allegations against the learned Judge who is poised to become the next CJI. Learning from the immediate past, these should be enquired into through a process that inspires the utmost public confidence. That will allow him to helm the institution in a manner that demonstrates absolute independence from the executive.
For me, the best Diwali gift would be the certainty that there will be no war in the Himalayas. Dokalam was a tense 73 day standoff which reminded both sides that the forty odd year stretch of No loss of life along the LAC could not be taken for granted. The informal summits at Wuhan and Mahabalipuram could have put in place more durable protocols to prevent the tragic loss of lives at Galwan Valley. 2. President elect Joe Biden is speaking to world leaders, the sequence laying out in concentric circles the salience of various countries to the United States.
