Delhi Government Approves Contempt Proceedings Against CJP Leaders Over Social Media Posts
The Delhi government's Additional Standing Counsel, Amol Sinha, has granted consent to initiate criminal contempt proceedings against Cockroach Janata Party leader Ratna Singh for social media posts alleging judicial bias by Chief Judicial Magistrate Abhinav Pandey. The posts were deemed to question the independence and impartiality of the judiciary. Separately, an advocate has sought Maharashtra AG's consent to pursue contempt action against CJP co-convenor Saurav Das for similar remarks. These actions follow concerns over statements perceived as undermining judicial integrity across multiple courts.
