The Supreme Court has extended mediation in the nearly two-decade-long Kalyani family dispute until the end of October 2026, directing courts to defer related litigation during this period. The mediation, initiated in July 2026 and led by former Supreme Court judge Justice L.

The court scheduled the next hearing for October 26, encouraging continued settlement efforts amid multiple ongoing cases.
