Rush Hour: SC raps Rahul Gandhi for China incursion remark, Jharkhand ex-CM Shibu Soren dead & more
We're building a brand-new studio to bring you bold ground reports, sharp interviews, hard-hitting podcasts, explainers and more. Support Scroll's studio fund today. The Supreme Court told Congress leader Rahul Gandhi that a 'true Indian' would not make remarks such as the ones he made in 2022 about alleged Chinese incursions into Indian territory. However, the court stayed the defamation proceedings against him for three weeks. The case pertains to comments made by Gandhi in December 16 about a clash between the Indian and Chinese armies along the Line of Actual Control in Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang. In response to the court's remark, Gandhi's counsel Abhishek Singhvi said that it was also possible for a 'true Indian' to express concern about the deaths of soldiers during clashes between India and China in eastern Ladakh's Galwan Valley in June 2020. A bench of Justices Dipankar Datta and AG Masih, however, asked the Opposition leader how he had verified claims that 2,000 sq km of Indian territory had been occupied by China. Datta asked why the Congress leader had made the allegations on social media instead of raising questions in Parliament. Read more. Jharkhand's former Chief Minister Shibu Soren died on Monday. He was 81. Soren was admitted to a hospital in New Delhi for more than a month and was undergoing treatment for kidney-related ailments. Soren was the founder of the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha and the party's chief for 38 years. He served as the chief minister for 10 days in March 2005, for five months between August 2008 and January 2009, and between December 2009 and May 2010. Read more. The Supreme Court questioned the 'tearing hurry' of the Uttar Pradesh government in passing an ordinance that allows it to take over the management of the Banke Bihari temple in Vrindavan. A bench of Justices Surya Kant and Joymalya Bagchi expressed disapproval of the 'clandestine manner' in which the government had secured permission to use temple funds for a Rs 500-crore corridor project. The permission was secured through a May 15 judgement of the Supreme Court, which allowed the state to acquire five acres of land with temple funds. The bench verbally proposed recalling the May 15 verdict and forming a committee, headed by a retired High Court judge, to oversee the temple's management while the validity of the ordinance was being decided. The Tamil Nadu government moved the Supreme Court challenging a Madras High Court order restraining it from naming welfare schemes after living politicians and using the photographs of former chief ministers, ideological leaders and political party symbols in advertisements of the schemes. On Thursday, the High Court passed the order on a plea filed by an All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam MP, who had sought directions to stop the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam government from using Chief Minister MK Stalin's name in public outreach programmes such as Ungaludan Stalin. The petitioner had argued that the practice violated the Supreme Court's earlier directions and the 2014 Government Advertisement Content Regulation Guidelines. The High Court had referred to a Supreme Court ruling that allowed the use of the current chief minister's photo in government advertisements, but ruled that including former leaders or party icons could be seen as political misuse of public funds.

31 years after attack in which RSS worker — now Kerala BJP vice president — lost both legs, 8 CPM workers surrender
Thirty-one years after a brutal attack on an RSS worker in Kerala, eight convicted CPI(M) workers surrendered before a court in Kannur on Monday. The RSS worker, who lost both his legs in the attack on January 25, 1994, is now BJP state vice-president Sadanadan Master, who was also made a Rajya Sabha member last month. Sadanandan, a retired school teacher, was serving as the RSS saha karyavah in Kannur district when he was attacked at his hometown of Mattannur. The accused CPI(M) workers surrendered before the sessions court in Thalassery after their appeal against the conviction was rejected by the High Court early this year. They had been sentenced to seven years' imprisonment and will be moved to the Kannur Central Prison. After a trial court in Kannur convicted and sentenced them in 1997, the accused moved the High Court, which in January this year upheld the conviction. The High Court had said the accused do not deserve 'any sort of leniency in the light of the overt acts committed by them'. 'The incident did not happen in a fit of rage/anger or on a sudden provocation. The attack seems to have been premeditated,' the High Court had said in the order upholding their conviction. The court also enhanced the compensation amount, with each of them being asked to pay Rs 50,000 each. Later, the accused moved the Supreme Court, which declined to admit the plea. Subsequently, the High Court cancelled their bail and told them to surrender before the trial court not later than August 4. There were 12 accused in the case, but the trial court had convicted only eight, as the charge of conspiracy against the four others could not be proved. This was one of the few cases pertaining to political violence in Kannur in which police had slapped various sections of the Terrorists and Disruptive Activities Prevention Act (TADA) 1987. Later, the charges under TADA were dropped. Meanwhile, CPI(M) leaders arranged a farewell for the accused persons before they left for the court to surrender.

Justice Nagamohan Das submits SC internal quota report to CM Siddaramaiah
Justice H N Nagamohan Das, who heads the one-man commission on internal reservation for Scheduled Caste in government jobs and education institutions, on Monday submitted his report to Chief Minister Siddaramaiah. Speaking to reporters, Siddaramaiah said the report would be presented in the cabinet meeting on August 7. "The report has been submitted. There is a cabinet meeting on August 7 where we will present it and take a decision," he added. Justice Das said he has submitted 1,766-page report. He further said 27,24,768 Scheduled Caste households and 1,07,01,982 individuals from the state participated in the survey. "At this juncture, this is the state government's property. I have no control over it. Its content and the decision whether to accept it or reject it rests entirely with the state government," Justice Das said. The retired High Court judge said that the state government formed the commission headed by him on January 1, 2025, and on March 27, he submitted an interim report saying that there is a lack of clarity on data and recommended a fresh survey. "The same day, the state cabinet too ordered a fresh survey," he said, and added that from May 5 to July 6, the survey took place. According to an official statement, Justice Das did not receive any form of remuneration or honorarium for this project.
