Delhi Government Consents to Criminal Contempt Proceedings Against CJP Leader Ratna Singh
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 a Saket court judge acted under external influence. The posts followed the court's refusal of Singh's petition related to her alleged detention by Delhi Police. Sinha noted the remarks questioned judicial independence and could undermine public confidence, distinguishing between fair criticism and contempt. Similar contempt actions are also sought against CJP co-convenor Saurav Das in Maharashtra.
