BC COURT
Saved by @Alex1Powell

Today is the last working day of the Supreme Court for the year 2020.
 
In a year of many unprecedented events, the Supreme Court has laid down many precedents, in more than one sense of the term. 

My list of the notables, but not necessarily in order of notability, is here👇

 1. In re. problems and miseries of migrant workers: A petition seeking help for migrant workers affected by the COVID lockdown had been disposed off. Then the Court suo moto took up the miseries of workers and sought to oversee the facilities for the migrant workers.
2. Government passed orders directing employers to not stop paying wages to workers. Employers challenged this In Ficus pax v. Union of India. Supreme Court directed employers to negotiate with employees.
3. In a decision having bearing upon its own administration, in Chief Information Commissioner v. HC of Gujarat and Anr. the court held that where HC rules provide for a procedure to obtain certified copies, same cannot be obtained by RTI.
4. The 2013 Land Acquisition Act resulted in lapse of some acquisition proceedings under the old 1894 Act. 5 judges in Indore Development Authority v. Manoharlal clarified that proceedings will not lapse either compensation has been paid or physical possession has been taken.
5. Happenings in the Manipur Legislative Assembly came under the scanner of the Supreme Court in Keisham Meghachandra Singh v. Speaker. It was held that  disqualification petition under 10th schedule for party hopping has to be decided within a period of 3 months.
6.  Women officers serving in the army are now also to be considered for permanent commissions. The case that made it possible is Secretary, Ministry of Defence v. Babita Punia. Incidentally Ms. Babita Punia is now a District Judge in Delhi.
7. Alembic Pharmaceuticals v. Rohit Prajapati and Ors.: Environmental Clearance cannot be given ex post facto., i.e., Industry set up before getting environmental clearance cannot later be certified.
8. In Union of India v. R. Thiyagarajan the Court held that the Writ of a High Court does not run beyond its territorial jurisdiction. I had some other thoughts on it https://t.co/pJUJiIcMAE.
9. Banking is controlled by the Union Government. Cooperatives are controlled by the State Government. What about Cooperative Banks? Will they be be under a Central legislation like SAFAESI? Constitution Bench in Pandurang Ganpati Chaugule v. Vishwasrao Patil Ltd. said yes.
10. Electronic evidence have to be supported by an Affidavit under Section 65B of the Evidence Act. But the Court in Arjun Panditrao Khotkar said that's not necessary if the original electronic device is also produced.
11. If a public authority is under a legal duty to do a thing, High Court u/a 226 is bound to issue mandamus to compel the authority to do that thing - Hari Krishna Mandir Trust v. State of Maharashtra.
12. A Constitution Bench in Chebrolu Leela Prasad Rao v. State of A.P. said that 100% reservation is not permitted even in areas covered under the Fifth Schedule.
13. In 2005, the Hindu Succession Act was amended to give equal coparcenary rights to women. In Vineeta Sharma v. Rakesh Sharma, the court held that the amendment confers benefits retroactively.
14. A case that was in the headlines was the contempt petition against Prashant Bhushan who was held guilty of contempt and fined Re. 1. (there would have been 3 months imprisonment + 3 year bar on practice if he failed to pay)
15. Court in E.V. Chinnaiah (2004) had held that there can't be sub-quota within SC reservation. A Constitution Bench in State of Punjab v. Davinder Singh and Ors. disagreed and referred to larger bench.
16. Can investigating officer be complainant in NDPS case? Constitution Bench in Mukesh Singh v. State said it depends on facts and circumstances. Only if the investigation was tainted by fact of investigating officer being the informant, the accused is entitled to acquittal.
17. Tamil Nadu Medical Officers Association v. Union of India (CB):- Medical Council of India does not have power to reserve seats for in service candidates in PG Courses. But States can make such reservation & ask beneficiaries to serve in rural, hilly & tribal areas for 5 years
18. This issue is hot again. A writ petition was filed seeking clearance of road during Shaheen Bagh protests. In Amit Sahni's case, Court held that protests cant obstruct a public way, but also said that government should have negotiated and found a solution.
19. Satish Chander Ahuja v. Sneha Ahuja: Under Domestic Violence Act, a woman can claim right of residence in a house owned by relatives as well. However, it has to be a living which has some permanency.
20. The case of Arnab Manoranjan Goswami is, let's say, pathbreaking. Role of the Courts in protecting liberty was reaffirmed. And factors to be considered when granting bail under Article 226 were enumerated.
21. In the continued fight against tribunalization by my brothers and sisters of the Madras Bar Association the Court directed the setting up of a National Tribunals Commission and also Upheld the Tribunal Appointment Rules 2020 with some modifications.
22. Homebuyers have been a harried lot these last few years. Supreme Court in Imperia Structures v. Anil Patni said they can choose between Real Estate Regulatory Authority and Consumer Courts for their remedy.
23. In Hitesh Verma v. UK, the court held that a dispute between a Scheduled Caste person and an upper caste person will not by itself amount to offence under SCST POA unless the offence is on account of the victim belonging to a scheduled caste.
24. A landlord tenant dispute can be resolved by arbitration unless covered by special legislations such as the Rent Control Acts. The Case - Vidya Drolia
25. The validity of CBI is a question that remains pending before the Supreme Court. This hasn't stopped the Court from transferring cases to CBI as seen in Dr. Naresh Kumar Mangla, which also laid down when they can transfer to CBI.
This wasn't the only case in which investigation got transferred to CBI of course. That also happened in

26. Rhea Chakraborty v. State of Bihar. Also notable because it was a single judge hearing a transfer petition.

There won't be a rerun of Jan 6. The riot at the Capitol was unique in many ways: Trump called for it; it was the last chance to "overturn" the election; it was huge in scale.


The coming Trumpist events on Jan 17 and Jan 20 will probably be much smaller in scale, especially in DC. The MAGA crew can't buy another flight and take more days off work so soon after Jan 6.

Some of the Trumpist forums are actively suspicious of these events, claiming they're FBI or Antifa traps. A lot of people at TDW felt that the *design* of this flyer was too lefty to be real!


Unfortunately, that doesn't mean everything will be OK. The statehouse events on Jan 17 have the potential to turn violent, where a few hundred people could be enough to overwhelm local authorities.

MAGA anger at a lot of the GOP is high, as well as against Dems. Even red states could see problems, so I hope authorities are prepared.

SCOOP/BREAKING NEWS: The Energy Department and National Nuclear Security Administration, which maintains the U.S. nuclear weapons stockpile, have evidence that hackers accessed their networks, officials directly familiar with the matter said.

Investigators found suspicious activity in networks belonging to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), Sandia and Los Alamos national laboratories in New Mexico and Washington, the Office of Secure Transportation and the Richland Field Office of the DOE.

DOE and NNSA officials have begun coordinating notifications about the breach to their congressional oversight bodies. Officials at DOE still don’t know whether the attackers were able to access anything, the people said—and may not know "for weeks"

I've decided that I will not be spouting off an uninformed, kneejerk opinion on a topic I don't have enough information about. Instead I shall cast shame on the idiots who do, and bring further confusion to everyone.


We as a people have been defanged not only by being fed wheelbarrows full of raw unmitigated horseshit, but even the knowledge of where to go to find this information has been buried beneath obscuring layers of horseshit thicker than the planet's crust.

We do not live in a democracy, whose vital functions require a freeflow of information much like pure capitalism requires a completely informed consumer populace. We instead live in an oligopoly of knowledge, where important facts we need to know are denied to us and hoarded away

Much like how we do not live under true capitalism as knowledge we need to make informed decisions as consumers is locked away and hidden behind thicc layers of legal documents, denying us knowledge of our rights under the rules of commerce we allegedly agreed to.

This is how we are denied our rights. By denying us knowledge of our rights, and then by denying us pathways to seek said knowledge, and if not removing them then hiding them within websites hosted on fucking geocities servers and javascript written by lowest bidder.

@RabbiArielSton1 hey rabbi, could you also get @realfrostylady to apologize for the implicit threat of violence to a black woman mariah macaronio?

i really prefer nonviolence---and i don't want anyone to be in danger for caring about what is going on.


i immediately reported the tweet for violence and threat of harm---but i think @TwitterSafety and @twittersupport think it is a free speech issue
this came after hours and hours of rage tweeting from frosty at mariah. i want everyone to be safe.

besides these implicit threats of violence from frosty after rage-tweeting about mariah----
i don't think @realfrostylady is taking account how her targeting mariah macaronio could put her in real danger and risk of physical harm---there needs to be an apology from frosty as well

THREAD: The following tweets are for the purposes of stories that will appear in Sunday Times Daily. The videos and images depicted may be upsetting but are deemed to be in the public interest. This is the story of the Ayanda "Borhey" Mtila as far as we were able to verify it.


On 13 October Mtila as defacto overlord of the Boko Harram gang, allegedly carried out his penultimate cash-in-transit robbery. Sources say he sustained a head wound in a shootout with security guards. Some friends believe he was killed by a fellow

He died two days later, on 15 October, after allegedly being in a coma for more than a day. His funeral was a spectacle, held on Nyanga Sports fields on 24 October and attended by hundreds of people. Sources say it was made possible by Paarl businessman Lukhanyo "Spur" Mangena.

क्या आप जानते हैं कि क्या है, पितृ पक्ष में कौवे को खाना देने के पीछे का वैज्ञानिक कारण!

श्राद्ध पक्ष में कौओं का बड़ा ही महत्व है। कहते है कौआ यम का प्रतीक है, यदि आपके हाथों दिया गया भोजन ग्रहण कर ले, तो ऐसा माना जाता है कि पितरों की कृपा आपके ऊपर है और वे आपसे ख़ुश है।


कुछ लोग कहते हैं की व्यक्ति मरकर सबसे पहले कौवे के रूप में जन्म लेता है और उसे खाना खिलाने से वह भोजन पितरों को मिलता है

शायद हम सबने अपने घर के किसी बड़े बुज़ुर्ग, किसी पंडित या ज्योतिषाचार्य से ये सुना होगा। वे अनगिनत किस्से सुनाएंगे, कहेंगे बड़े बुज़ुर्ग कह गए इसीलिए ऐसा करना

शायद ही हमें कोई इसके पीछे का वैज्ञानिक कारण बता सके।

हमारे ऋषि मुनि और पौराणिक काल में रहने वाले लोग मुर्ख नहीं थे! कभी सोचियेगा कौवों को पितृ पक्ष में खिलाई खीर हमारे पूर्वजों तक कैसे पहुंचेगी?

हमारे ऋषि मुनि विद्वान थे, वे जो बात करते या कहते थे उसके पीछे कोई न कोई वैज्ञानिक कारण छुपा होता था।

एक बहुत रोचक तथ्य है पितृ पक्ष, भादो( भाद्रपद) प्रकृति और काक के बीच।

एक बात जो कह सकते कि हम सब ने स्वतः उग आये पीपल या बरगद का पेड़/ पौधा किसी न किसी दीवार, पुरानी

इमारत, पर्वत या अट्टालिकाओं पर ज़रूर देखा होगा। देखा है न?

ज़रा सोचिये पीपल या बरगद की बीज कैसे पहुंचे होंगे वहाँ तक? इनके बीज इतने हल्के भी नहीं होते के हवा उन्हें उड़ाके ले जा सके।
