#WomenRightsMatters! It's unacceptable that women continue to be victims of crime. We must work together to end gender-based violence and ensure justice for all. #EndViolenceAgainstWomen #EndRapeCulture #JusticeForWomen

It was "highly inappropriate" for the #BCI to issue a statement opposing the hearing of marriage equality petitions by the #SupremeCourt: SC Bar Association in Resolution.

'It is the duty of the court to decide whether it should be heard by the court or left to the Parliament.'

JUST IN: SC stays Cal HC judge Justice Abhijit Gangopadhyay’s order directing the Secretary General of the Supreme Court to produce before him the report and the official translation of the interview given by him in the media on the basis of which the Supreme Court withdrew a case from him.

Unprecedented turn of events. Replugging an explainer I did for @LiveLawIndia on the TV interview and what was said by Justice Gangopadhyay.

The Bench articulated that the right of default bail under Section 167(2) of the CrPC is not merely a statutory right, but a fundamental right that flows from Article 21 of the Constitution.

It's out! Student groups from 36 Indian law schools collectively condemn and stand in solidarity against the BCI's regressive, ignorant, and harmful Resolution on marriage equality. #LawStudentsAgainstBCI

Sr. Adv Menaka Guruswamy: My Lords may I say that, that was the most nerve-wracking lunch of my life.

Guruswamy: Because my Lords, I was thinking about how do I sum up a conversation that Mr. Kripal, Ms. Katju and I contemplated having in this Court for perhaps many decades of our lives. That is why. So I went high on sugar and low on carbs my Lords at lunchtime.
