SC fixes Aug 19-Sep 20 hearing schedule for Presidential Reference; will hear preliminary objection of TN & Kerala on its maintainability
Supreme Court NEW DELHI: A five-judge constitution bench of the SC led by CJI B R Gavai on Tuesday fixed a nine-day schedule to deliberate on a Presidential Reference that has questioned the SC's power to fix timelines for the President and Governors on granting, refusing and withholding assent to Bills passed by Assemblies. The bench of CJI Gavai, and Justices Surya Kant, Vikram Nath, P S Narasimha and A S Chandurkar said the hearing would commence from Aug 19, when it will first hear senior advocates K K Venugopal and A M Singhvi on behalf of Kerala and Tamil Nadu, respectively, on the states' preliminary objections to maintainability of the Reference. It said those opposing the reference, represented by Kapil Sibal, Rakesh Dwivedi, Gopal Subramaniam, would be given four days – Aug 19, 20, 21 and 26 - to complete their arguments. Those supporting the Reference – attorney general R Venkataramani and solicitor general Tushar Mehta – would place their response to maintainability plea as well as the constitutional issues warranting the Reference on Aug 28, Sep 2, 3 and 9. It reserved Sep 10 for rejoinders by parties and clarified that under no circumstance would the schedule be breached and told lawyers to arrange time-schedule for their arguments through prior consultation. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like So Many Surprising Uses – Baking Soda Might Be The Only Thing You Need Read More Undo It appointed advocate Aman Mehta as the nodal counsel for those supporting Reference and Misha Rohatgi as one for opposers. 'The nodal counsel in consultation with lawyers shall arrange the timetable for the arguing counsel so that the hearing could be completed on Sep 10. The timetable will be followed scrupulously,' the CJI-led bench forewarned. TOI was first to report on May 15 about the President sending a Reference to the SC for its opinion on the contentious issue of judiciary stepping into the domain of the executive, especially when the Constitution gave no power to the SC to grant deemed assent on behalf of the Governor to Bills. Critical of the SC's Apr 8 judgment and use of its Article 142 powers to rule that the 10 Bills pending with the TN governor to be deemed to have been assented to, the President had said, 'The concept of a deemed assent of the President and the Governor is alien to the constitutional scheme and fundamentally circumscribes the powers of the President and the Governor'. The Reference had said Articles 200 and 201, applicable to Governors and the President respectively, 'does not stipulate any time frame or procedure' to be followed by them while considering grant or refusal of assent to a Bill passed by an Assembly. The Reference has sought the SC's opinion on 14 questions. Without any express provision in the Constitution, A bench of Justices J B Pardiwala and R Mahadevan on Apr 8 had set a three-month deadline for the Governor to either grant or return the Bill to the House. If the Bill is re-passed by the House and resent to him, then the governor must grant assent within a month, the SC had ruled. It had also fixed a three-month deadline for the President to decide whether to grant or refuse assent to a Bill.

‘Pure lack of talent': Trump says Stephen Colbert's show axed due to $50 million loss; Kimmel and Fallon next in line ?
US President Donald Trump claimed that he played no part in the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, but suggested that the long-running host was axed due to a 'pure lack of TALENT' and mounting financial losses. 'Everybody is saying that I was solely responsible for the firing of Stephen Colbert from CBS, Late Night. That is not true!' Trump wrote in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, on Tuesday (local time). 'The reason he was fired was a pure lack of TALENT, and the fact that this deficiency was costing CBS $50 Million Dollars a year in losses — And it was only going to get WORSE!' Trump, also went on to suggest that other late-night hosts would soon meet a similar fate. 'Next up will be an even less talented Jimmy Kimmel, and then, a weak, and very insecure, Jimmy Fallon. The only real question is, who will go first? Show Biz and Television is a very simple business. If you get Ratings, you can say or do anything. If you don't, you always become a victim. Colbert became a victim to himself, the other two will follow.' Trump's post followed CBS's announcement last Thursday that The Late Show would end in May 2026, marking the close of a 33-year run. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo According to BBC, the network called this move 'purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night [television]' and insisted it was 'not related in any way to the show's performance, content or other matters.' Colbert, who broke the news to his audience during a taping of the show that evening, was met with boos and cries of 'no' from the crowd at the Ed Sullivan Theatre in New York. 'I do want to say that the folks at CBS have been great partners,' BBC cited the host. 'It's not just the end of our show, but it's the end of The Late Show on CBS. I'm not being replaced. This is all just going away,' he said. 'It is a fantastic job. I wish somebody else was getting it.' Colbert took over the programme from David Letterman in 2015 and became one of Trump's most prominent critics in the late-night television sphere. The cancellation came two weeks after CBS parent company Paramount settled a lawsuit filed by Trump. The president had accused the network of deceptively editing a 60 Minutes interview with his 2024 rival, Kamala Harris, to 'tip the scales in favour of the Democratic party.' Colbert's show was has long been criticised by conservative commentators over alleged political bias. According to MRC NewsBusters, a right-leaning media watchdog, the programme hosted 176 liberal guests and only one Republican between 2022 and 2025. The 61-year-old presenter's frequent jabs at Donald Trump have fuelled speculation that the cancellation may have had political undertones, despite the agency citing financial reasons. The end of The Late Show also comes amid ongoing merger talks between Paramount and Skydance Media, a deal that would need federal government approval. If the show concludes as planned in 2026, CBS will be left without a late-night comedy programme for the first time since 1993.

'Deals working out very well': Trump on India-US trade deal, hints at 20-25 per cent tariff

During a gaggle with the press interaction aboard Air Force One on Tuesday (local time), Trump responded to a report suggesting that India might be preparing for 20 to 25 per cent tariffs, stating that India had been imposing higher tariffs on the US as compared to other countries.

Undo "India has been a good friend. But India has charged basically more tariffs than almost any other country over the years. But now I'm in charge. And you just can't do that. I think the trade deals are working out very well. Hopefully for everybody, but for the United States, they're very, very good," the US President said. Earlier on April 22, Trump imposed a tariff of 26 per cent on Indian goods imported to the US, before announcing a pause on those "reciprocal" levies. Live Events Meanwhile, the Union Minister for Commerce, Piyush Goyal , on Sunday, stated that the trade discussion between India and the US had been going "very well." "India today negotiates from a position of strength, a position of confidence. It is this very confidence that continuously encourages us to make good free trade agreements... Our discussions with the United States are progressing very well," he stated. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, during PM Modi's visit to the UK last week, also stated that India had been actively engaged in discussions with the US on a potential Bilateral Trade Agreement (BTA), emphasising the ongoing contacts with partners in the US. During a press conference following the signing of the India-UK Free Trade Agreement, Misri stated, "We are discussing that under a different vertical. All I can say is that our engagement is underway. The contacts are underway, and we'll see how that goes." On July 14, a senior government official stated that India was making concrete progress toward finalising a BTA with the US, with both countries committed to following the path outlined by their respective leaders. Speaking on the ongoing trade negotiations , the official emphasised that India is "moving in terms of a BTA" and actively "looking at a mutually beneficial deal" that would serve the interests of both nations. Trump also used the opportunity to once again claim credit for his role in brokering the ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan, following the recent conflict in May. The conflict was triggered by the April 22 Pahalgam terror attacks, which killed 26 people, and India's subsequent response, 'Operation Sindoor,' involving precision strikes on nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK). He also praised India's leadership under Prime Minister Narendra Modi for its role in regional stability. "Look, India, they're my friends and he's (PM Modi) my friend and you know they ended the war with Pakistan and by request and I was great and Pakistan did also. We did a lot of great settlements," he said. India had reportedly refuted the claims made by the US president, noting that it was Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) who contacted their Indian counterpart to request an end to hostilities, following which the ceasefire was then agreed upon.
