Senior Advocate Ravindra Srivastava is making rejoinder submissions.
He says that no authority seems to be looking into the grievances of the borrowers.

Srivastava : Govt and RBI have come up with measures - for small borrowers (for loans up to 2 crores) on which I made submissions regarding discrimination.

They have shown nothing on record to prove why this was done, Srivastava says

Srivastava says that the intervention application of the IBA and the SBI circulars have been signed by the Deputy Managing Director but nowhere it has been stipulated to be a Board Approved policy.

Bombay HC refers to SC judgment in Arnab Goswami case during the hearing of Varavara Rao's case.

"Now we have a judgment(Arnab case) wherein it has been clarified that HC can grant bail in writ. Earlier there was a grey area. Now the law has been made clear", Justice Shinde says

'Arnab's case was on different facts', submits ASG Anil Singh for NIA @NIA_India

"Earlier both of us were pondering whether under 226 bail can be granted, but the position has been clarified now", Justice Shinde replies.

"Nanavati hospital report is deficient in a number of areas, they have been conspicuously silent on a number of issues"- Anand Grover submits for Varavara Rao.

#VaravaraRao

VV Rao has had ailments from the beginning, they do not have the infrastructure in jail in terms of medical facilities and he keeps getting unwell/sick since the conditions are such, that is why he cannot stay in jail - Grover

#VaravaraRao

Once he goes back to jail he will again get sick seeing the ailments he is suffering from, so we will be back to court again as he will get sick - Grover

A Bench headed by Justice Ashok Bhushan will shortly hear a plea by Former CJ of Andhra Pradesh HC Justice V. Eshwaraiah against an order passed by HC directing for an investigation into his private telephone conversation regarding charges of misconduct against sitting SC judge.

Advocate Prashant Bhushan appears.

#SupremeCourt @pbhushan1

Sr. Adv. Kapil Sibal states that he’s appearing for the Intervenors and has nothing to say at the moment.

Bhushan narrates the events to the Bench.

#SupremeCourt @pbhushan1 @KapilSibal

Bhishan: How can a private conversation be made a subject of inquiry ? What is the crime in having a private conversation, even if it’s about the conduct of a SC judge ? Without even saying into me, the HC orders an inquiry ? How can that be done ?

#SupremeCourt @pbhushan1

Bhushan: Your Lordship will need to issue notice and stay the inquiry as the inquiry is completely out of order.

#SupremeCourt @pbhushan1 @KapilSibal

A Supreme Court bench headed by CJI SA Bobde is hearing a PIL seeking the direction for the Ministry of Home Affairs, Law and Justice and Women and Child Development to make all the personal laws uniform.

Senior Adv. Pinky Anand is appearing for the Petitioners followed by Meenakshi Arora.
The plea seeks the removal of personal laws as they are discriminatory under Art. 14,15 and other provisions of International Covenants.

CJI: You want the abolishment of Personal Laws?
Pinky Anand: No
CJI: You are not saying it doesn't mean that's not the reality.

"You are asking us to encroach upon personal laws and remove the distinction that they create." CJI said.

Pinky Anand refers to the cases of Shayara Bano and Sarala Mudgal to argue that Courts on earlier occasions have struck down laws and gave directions for practices found to be unconstitutional.

Crucial hearing in the farmers protests cases in the Supreme Court today.

A bench headed by Chief Justice of India will hear the cases post 11 AM.

#FarmLaws

The Delhi police has filed an injunction application to stop the proposed tractor rally by protesting farmers on the Republic Day.

On January 12, the SC had issued notice on the petition. It will be considered today.

#FarmersProtest

In another significant development, one farmers' union, Bhartiya Kisan Union Lokshakti, filed an application seeking the complete reconstitution of the Committee constituted by the SC for negotiations. One member, BS Mann, had recused earlier.

On Jan 12, the top court had stayed the implementation of the farm laws after observing that the Centre has failed in its negotiations. The SC also constituted a committee for talks. However, the protesting unions said they will not appear before the committee.

#FarmersProtest

The SC observed in its order that the staying the implementation will "assuage hurt feelings of farmers" and will "encourage them to return".

Bollywood is just a bubble of privileged, tone-deaf hypocrites. You think criticising Modi is activism? You can't even call out a director accused of #metoo. What happened to your political correctness and feminism? Is it only limited to gaslighting Dalits? Shows your hypocrisy

Secondly, if you read history, you will find that Dalits would have a broom attached to their backs by UC rulers so that the land would not be polluted. By portraying a Dalit politician holding a broom, you are glorifying the stereotype of casteist jobs which our ancestors fought

Thirdly, using a casteist slur like untouchable is not clever wordplay by any means. It is just dehumanizing and constitutionally banned. We were outcasts who were not allowed to even touch the same places as UCs. If you don't know our history, don't misuse it. Unlearn casteism

Moreover, the director of the movie is Subhash Kapoor, a man accused of sexual assault. It baffles me how all of Bollywood has shown their casteism in targeting Dalits for criticising the misleading portrayal of themselves, but no one has pointed a finger at the sexual molestor!

Ever heard of Gollala Mamidada village in Andhra?
Affectionately called "Konaseema Ayodhya", this town has a famous Lord Rama temple. Set in the midst of lush greenery, the towering double Gopurams are a sight for the ages.

A thread.

The delta area of the Godavari river is called the Konaseema. This island is created as the Godavari splits into its distributaries the Vruddha Godavari, Vasishta Godavari, Gautami and Nilarevu, just below the city of Rajahmundry. Gollala Mamidada is located here

Located around 45 km from Rajamundry (and 20 kms from Kakinada), this little village is famous for the Sri Kodanda Rama Swami Temple. Kodandam is the bow of Lord Rama, and he is worshipped in AP/TG mostly as Kodanda Rama.

This isnt an ancient temple like the others around here, but relatively new.
The construction started in 1889 by two local brothers Dwarampudi Subbi Reddy and Rami Reddy donated land and built a small shrine to Lord Rama. A larger temple was constructed in 1939

The most stunning feature of this temple are the towering double Gopurams. Rising vertically to the heavens, they lord over the neighbouring hinterland, and are said to be visible for over ten kilometres.

One religion focuses on living a good, decent life, doing one’s dharma while being cognizant of impact of one’s actions over many births.

Other focuses only on after life, advocates even hurting others in its name.

Under which system can they coexist - serious answers pls

I’m not looking for partition should have been thorough type answers. That doesn’t help

Even other countries face this challenge but there, it is between liberal society founded on Abrahamic principles and this religion.

India is unique because of the nature of Sanatana Dharma

What sort of a person would even kill another just to get to heaven.

1. values his own existence so poorly that life has no meaning for him

2. Or brainwashed to believe that some lives aren't even lives so they can be taken

3. or rewards of some mythical heaven worth killing

In any society the ones with no hope for their life are most dangerous.

So I can understand why Modi Ji is working to bring them into mainstream and give them hope in life away from those who have kept them in ghettos.

That takes care of the 1st group.

What abt the other 2?

Even if the 1st group reforms we have some hope.

But the second and third - those that don’t value non-believers’ life is worth it or those that think promise of heaven is more important. How does one handle them.

Hoping for internal reformation hasn’t worked out.

What now?

Very Well Written..

100% factual aspects are brought out in this text. Circulate this to as many people as you can...

*Dear CJI* & fellow Justices of Supreme Court of India,

1. A party Wins Lok Sabha elections, gets 303 seats with massive 46% vote share.

😔

2. Then it wins state after state to get majority in Rajya Sabha.

3. It passes Kisan Bills in both the Houses, gets President's approval & the Bills become Laws.

4. Some 20-25 K of 1 state sits on road for a month, then you stay the LAWs.

5. What a mockery of the democratic process..!!!

6. Where are our protectors of democracy now ?? Those who were screaming that democracy is being murdered, not so long ago ??

7. The Supreme Court today said, "We are trying to solve the problem in accordance with the Law."

8. Hello Sir ji..! Your job is not to solve a problem (but to judicially decide a case on merits). That would mean you don't want to annoy any party. You want to please everyone. Sorry! you are not here to please people U are here to interpret existing Law & pronounce a judgment.

9. Your job is to say who is right and who is wrong. That's all. Nothing more. Nothing less.

10. But you didn't do that. What do you do? From this country of 130 crore people, you hand pick four people and ask them to tell you what is their opinion about these Laws.
