The Ladle Mashaik Dargah has moved the Supreme Court to block Maha Shivaratri puja on February 15. The plea alleges a "strategic pattern" of using interim court orders to bypass the Places of Worship Act and alter the site's religious character.

The Supreme Court has cleared the Assam government to remove encroachments from 3.62 lakh hectares of forest land. The court mandated a fair verification process by a special committee, ensuring residents receive a hearing and 15 days' notice before any eviction occurs.

The EC stated that the West Bengal govt is trying to obstruct the SIR drive via "proper planning and concerted action."

Imam Hussain also stated that he is a regular worshipper at the Hazarath Sultan Sikkandar Badhusha Avuliya Dargah and the adjoining prayer space at Nellithoppu.

The Supreme Court Collegium has approved five retired judges as ad hoc appointments to the Allahabad High Court for two years. Utilizing Article 224A, this rare move aims to reduce the massive case backlog in India’s largest High Court amid significant vacancy levels.

This comes after Mamata Banerjee recently filed an Article 32 petition challenging the SIR exercise and accusing the Election Commission of political bias and authoritarianism.

It must be recalled that on 22nd October, the Kerala High Court dismissed a writ filed by Akhila Kerala Thanthri Samajam (AKTS) against the accreditation and recognition given to institutions deemed Thanthra Vidyalayas by the Travancore Devaswom Board (TDB) and the Kerala Devaswom Recruitment Board (KDRB).

The Supreme Court warned Meta to follow India’s Constitution or "leave the country" during a hearing on WhatsApp’s 2021 privacy policy. Chief Justice Surya Kant called the platform's data-sharing practices a "mockery of constitutionalism," vowing to protect citizens from commercial exploitation.
