The Supreme Court notes that tweets of Prashant Bhushan attempt to shake the public confidence on the judiciary

The said contempt case was registered against Bhushan for a 2009 interview to Tehelka magazine where he had accused the judiciary of corruption.

The Supreme Court today allowed Rath Yatra procession to be carried out in Puri, Odisha, amid coronavirus scare. The state shall make necessary arrangements to ensure infection does not spread.

Katju's anger against Gogoi perhaps stems out from a past incident when in 2016, a Supreme Court bench headed by then SC Judge had slapped a contempt notice on retired judge Markandey Katju for his controversial social media posts on sensitive issues.

The cases being heard by the CJI touch diverse topics such as defence, religion and politics.

Justice SA Bobde will be the 47th Chief Justice of India. His term will continue until April 23, 2021.

Former CJI RM Lodha has stated in his police complaint that he had deposited Rs 1 lakh in an account number provided in an email from his friend's hacked account.

CJI Gogoi also said, in response to the sexual harassment allegations, that this is a pressure tactic to dissuade him from hearing important cases that are up for hearing next week.

It remains to be seen if the Editors at The Wire will be called in for Contempt of Court under the Contempt of Courts Act 1971.

The Wire has invited the ire of the Chief Justice of India with their 'irresponsible' reporting of the CBI issue
