Supreme Court to Hear Multiple Key Cases Including Bail Conditions and Aadhaar Guidelines

The Supreme Court is set to hear several important cases on Monday, May 4. These include a suo motu case on restrictive bail conditions imposed by lower courts, particularly the Odisha High Court, which allegedly violate Article 21 of the Constitution. The court will also consider pleas from the AFT Bar Association on tribunal vacancies, ex-IAS officer Anil Tuteja seeking relief in a Chhattisgarh liquor scam case, Purnea MP Pappu Yadav challenging the withdrawal of his security by Bihar government, and a petition requesting UIDAI to issue new Aadhaar cards only to children up to six years old with stricter guidelines for others to prevent misuse.
