Supreme Court Summons Sanjay Raut in Contempt Case Over Remarks on CJI
The Supreme Court has directed Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut to appear in person on November 17 in contempt proceedings over his social media remarks about Chief Justice of India Surya Kant and the judiciary. Journalist Nikhil Wagle, also facing contempt charges, was allowed to appear virtually after expressing remorse and deleting his posts. The contempt petition was filed by the Supreme Court Bar Association, which argued that the remarks showed disrespect to the judiciary. Raut confirmed he will comply with the court's order.
